The good you could be doing as an impact partner
We offer a powerful way for your organization to contribute directly to the UN goals.
[ 1 ]
SHAPE THE FUTURE OF OUR OCEANS BY EDUCATION
Lasting environmental change starts with knowledge. We empower households to understand the impact of plastic waste and adopt better habits, building long-term behavioral change.
[ 2 ]
BUILD A CIRCULAR FUTURE IN LOCAL COMMUNITIES
Plastic pollution is the result of broken waste systems. We connect households to responsible waste management —turning waste into value and preventing environmental harm.
[ 3 ]
PROTECT THE MOST IMPORTANT ECO-SYSTEM ON EARTH
Preventing ocean plastic is our main mission. Together, we can safeguard one of our planet’s most vital resources, and demonstrate genuine environmental leadership.
[ 4 ]
BUILD PARTNERSHIPS FOR REAL CHANGE THROUGH COLLABORATION
We work alongside communities, local stakeholders, and impact-driven organizations to scale proven solutions to transform local action into lasting, system-level change.

OCEAN PLASTIC

Our partnership offer
We provide a clear and credible pathway for companies that want to make a real difference—for marine ecosystems, for the people who depend on them, and for the future of our oceans.
By sponsoring the connection of households to a reliable plastic waste management system, your company helps stop plastic at its source—before it reaches rivers and seas. This approach tackles the root cause of pollution, prioritizing prevention over reaction and creating long-term, measurable impact.
