YOUR DONATION
TO THE RECYCLE CHALLENGE

Funds generated are directed to Literacy Project International aka Whose Magazine? A Youth Publication. The educational program known as THE RECYCLE CHALLENGE Parade & Festival (Smart Art of Trash Initiative). The main focus is to provide employment for youth and adults in developing creative recycling programs that repurpose & reduce trash through a community action or a completed artwork(s). What we do is to provide employment opportunities for youth & adults to recycle paper to other trash into paper dresses, gowns, and wearables art or costumes, and repurposed clothing.

RECYCLE

Take unwanted items such as paper (cardboard, construction paper, boxes) fibers, plastics (bottles, forks & spoons), and more to create smart art of trash!

REPURPOSE

Through recycling unwanted materials we create through THE RECYCLE CHALLENGE,

paper dresses, hats, hand fans and more!

REDUCE

As we reduce our carbon footprint collectively by creating wearables art, we foster collaboration and at the same time reduce waste. Even though a small percentage is redirected from landfills, new art is created that will last for another five years.
