About the project
Every year, an astounding 460 billion
kilograms of virgin plastic is produced. Concurrently, a staggering 400 billion
kilograms of plastic waste is generated annually. We empower our collection community
members in vulnerable coastal regions to exchange plastic for income and
life-improving benefits, including access to health, work, and life insurance,
digital connectivity, and social and banking services
