The head social worker highlighted the work the Foundation has done with Upcycle Foundation NPC. “Together, we reduce waste and prevent it from ending up in landfills, exemplifying the power of collective action in promoting environmental sustainability and social responsibility.”
She added that this is where the Foundation requires the public’s assistance as members of the local community, both business and private. For the projects to be successful, the foundation requires an unending supply of scrap paper for shredding.
For upcycling any of the following products are accepted:
• Lever arch files,
• Cardboard,
• Plastic bread bags, or
• Plastic shopping bags.
The REEA Foundation is also looking to fill out its computer room daily, and looking for long-term tenants.

“We appreciate the ongoing support from our valued stakeholders and look forward to continuing our collaborative efforts. Together, let’s make a positive impact.”
