The reason why we ask for a financial contribution from all of our volunteers and interns is because we aim to provide all of our projects for free to the local communities. These financial contributions make up a large part of our income to cover our operating costs. You can look at the contribution rates here http://otracosa.org/volunteer/contribution/. We believe our rates are pretty fair compared to rates other organizations in South America ask for. We also hold transparency extremely important so you can see where our contributions go in our Annual Reports. We will have 2019's report up soon. I know it seems kind of unfair to ask for a financial contribution when you offer your work for free but a lot of the contribution goes to the support system we offer such as airport pickups, weekly lunches, and fun weekend trips.

Recycling of post-consumer plastic waste to manufacture building materials (plastic lumber, roofing tiles and pavements)

Bamenda, Cameroon Благотворительность

Отзывов: 0 Отправились: 1 Desmond Abinwi Fontoh

We use post-consumer plastic waste as a resource to manufacture eco-friendly plastic lumber. The plastic lumber is an affordable alternative to timber, which reduces the need for building material manufactured from wood, helping to preserve forests and cut down on deforestation and effects of climate change. Plastic lumber made from recycled plastics are ideal for fencing on farms, homes, national parks, forest reserves and commercial places. Our solution creates economic value on plastic at the points of generation to enable the households/farms/companies to sort and sell plastics in order to earn income. It worth noting we are creating wealth from waste and with the uprising levels of environmental degradation our solution will generate employment for individuals at the initial stages of the value chain, mostly youth and women, who collect, sort and clean plastic waste for reselling. We aim at training 50 youths on this methodology and empower 200 kids on the need to beat plastic pollution
