The Eco Build Movement

22/10/2023

Please help our project continue to grow through donating to our page!
All donations made previously have allowed us to gain a new store room for our materials, buy new equipment for collecting/washing/drying plastics and continue to run swap shop.
We have plans to help expand the project further so would greatly appreciate any donations 🙏🙏

Weʼre raising money to help our project grow further and continue to run eco brick workshops educating communities in Malawi around the problems of plastic waste!. Support this JustGiving Crowdfunding Page.

This week we ran an awareness campaign and eco brick workshop at Stepping Stones School! It was a great success, and we are making plans to build another bench 💪
The children were excited and very interested in making eco bricks and the school will be running a swap shop of their own for completed bricks📚✏️
Great work guys!!

This weekend we had 60 children attend our eco brick swap shop! It was really nice to see so many new faces 😁
Maga did a great job at introducing eco bricks to all the new kids and teaching them the best techniques for making them strong.
We hope to continue having so many people attend our sessions in the future!

Today visited Butterfly space, Nkhata-bay Malawi.. We were supplied upon seeing these young men and ladies who protects and conserve the Environment by utilizing waste plastic papers and plastic bottles.

They use materials as stipulated above to make Eco-bricks, these brick's can be used to construct different projects, for example: can be used for constructing House's, school and many more..

The pictorial below illustrate the use of Eco-bricks for making Benches.

Thanks to all the donations so far, we have now secured a storage facility to keep the project organised and our materials safe! We have also been able to buy new mats, gloves and cleaning materials, as well as plenty of notepads, pens and colouring pencils for swap shop. On top of this, we have now sourced the additional building materials needed to construct our first demonstration bench!
