Volunteer in Person

Volunteers: Eco-voluntourism is a rewarding way to meet the wonderful people of these communities and learn about their way of life while offering assistance. Most of the micro-recycling centers would love to have your help in person. Some ways you might assist:

• coordinate a local Pencils for Plastics Drive

• collect waste

• operate equipment to make recycled plastic panels from plastic waste

• create products from recycled plastic panels

If you would like to volunteer in person, please post your interest on the Waste Free in ‘23 Facebook Group page.
