ONE Week until K-Kids will be trick or treating for UNICEF around the ACIS area. All donations collected will be given to the Brick x Brick project.
This innovative project is transforming plastic waste into classrooms for some of the 1.6 million children who are currently out of school in Côte d’Ivoire.
UNICEF has partnered with a Colombian family-run social enterprise, Conceptos Plasticos, to create a women-led recycling market. This market will convert Côte d’Ivoire’s plastic waste into safe and durable low-cost building materials.
With the help of CKI and other partners and donors, UNICEF has been able to build 284 classrooms, with another 91 under construction and 98 more planned. These collective efforts from all donors have enabled the total recycling of 2,062 tons of plastic.
If you live the ACIS area K-Kids will be trick or treating from 4:00-5:30 on Monday, October 28th. Have some change ready to donate to this wonderful cause.
