- To give New Life, New Purpose, a New Beginning to single use plastic and foil packaging waste
- To bring people together to make and create items which helps combat loneliness and give life purpose
- To send survival items to people that have nothing, and/or living on the streets, and/or suffering through national disasters and energy poverty.
- To support environment efforts, reducing waste to landfill, helping the planet. The Chip Packet Project helps so many people in so many different ways, it really is one big ball of good feelings. We are all volunteers, together making something from nothing for those Kiwi's who have nothing. - we need all the help we can get!
