Meet Elizabeth.
At 68, Elizabeth refuses to slow down. As a street sweeper in Baseco, Manila, she has spent years witnessing plastic waste choke her community—flooded streets, polluted waters, and discarded plastic piling up around her.
But instead of accepting it, she took action.
By collecting and exchanging plastic, she not only keeps her neighbourhood cleaner but also provides for her family. With her earnings, she buys daily essentials like rice. Most importantly, she’s helping her grandchild stay in school. Through her hard work, she was able to secure a tablet for her grandchild’s education—something that once felt impossible.
