We need Volunteers TO HELP US SORT AND SEGREGATE COLLECTED PLASTIC WASTE!
 

We are a volunteer group in Pandacan, Manila engaged in taking action to protect our environment. Currently, we are working on a plastic waste recovery and recycling initiative. We have succeeded in creating a collection/sorting system and getting industry partners to recycle plastic waste into useful bricks for recycling.

For this particular volunteer opportunity, we are partnering with Social Plastic - Plastic Bank at the KAMI muna po, abang Politiko: Good Earth Day Festival 2019 on April 27 and 28!

As part of the campaign to stop the flow of destructive plastic waste into our oceans, Plastic Bank will exchange 2 kilos of plastic waste with an ecobag to help you go zero-waste when you are at the grocery.

The following will be accepted:

- laminates such as empty sachets and snack packaging
- sando bags
- plastic wrapping and packaging material
- styrofoam
- used tetra packs
- used plastic bottles
-- used paper and cartons

ONLY CLEAN AND DRY PLASTICS WILL BE ACCEPTED.

Offer is available until supplies last!

On Saturday, Plastic Bank will start accepting plastic at 4pm until 9pm; Sunday 8am-9pm.

Tumatanggap po sila ng volunteers sa Sabado, 4-9pm. You may also contact them on how to partner with them for an incentives-based waste management program in your community. The Plastic Bank is willing to exchange recovered recyclables for rice and ecobags. 

Call them at 09173260319.

Magkita po tayo sa Balagtas Plaza ngayong Sabado at Lingo!
