Sorry, I'm not aware of any film can recycling programs. Here's a couple
of other ideas:

1) The current issue of Pop Photo has a picture of a chess set made out
of film cans (Kodak:black  vs. Fuji?:clear). Lids are pawns. Cans are cut
to suitable shapes.

2) Switch to a film brand that has clear cans, and then use them for storage
of misc. small items.
