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

Light and Hope Initiative- Charity organization working in the informal settlements of Nairobi-Kenya

Nairobi, Kenya Благотворительность

Отзывов: 0 Отправились: 3 Cosmas Zuma

Light and Hope Initiative is a non-governmental charity working to benefit the most vulnerable community members in the informal settlements in Kenya through our integrated programs such as:

1. Education
We partner with individuals, churches and organizations to support the vulnerable children in Mathare slums through child sponsorship program and paying for their school fees, two meals each day, school uniforms, and their medication. We regularly do intentional visits to their homes to follow up on their progress guided by our child protection policy (CPP) to ensure the children are always safe. We also nurture and develop the talents in our children.


2. Empowerment
Through our empowerment programs, we create jobs and a reliable income for parents of our students and other community members who have little to no formal education. We show thousands of people from impoverished backgrounds that they are resource-rich in ability, determination, ingenuity, and motivation.

3. Restoration
Being whole means being healthy. We carry out Health initiatives, advanced physical, mental, emotional, relational and spiritual health support programs in the community.
Within neighborhoods, community development starts with relationships. Through our community engagement program, we engage and equip one community member to equip and mobilize others. We help communities identify their needs, evaluate their God-given resources and find solutions on improving their lives. For example, community gardens, clean-up days, or construction of public restrooms.

Through Education, Mentorship and Empowerment we set these families on improved trajectories and break the inter-generational cycle of poverty that has long existed here in Mathare slums.

Вид работ

We work with vulnerable single mothers in the informal settlements by offering skills training to them and once they finish we help them start up their own businesses using the skills acquired.
We are always on the look out for volunteers with different skills such as woodwork, Beauty, embroidery e.t.c. to help pass these skills to the women in our network so as to set them on improve trajectory and help break the inter-generational cycle of poverty that has long existed here in the slums of Mathare.

We help Volunteers from abroad with processing of Visa and booking of rooms for accommodation and they can stay with us for as long as they can sustain themselves.

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.
