How it works for

Community Organizations

We are partnering with Philadelphia community organizations based around youth, education, arts, the neighborhood, etc. who want to promote recycling and sustainability education. We’ll work with each venue to set up a customized waste station for their space that helps recycling education and can be a centerpiece for discussions around sustainability.

Pilot Recycling Station

A pilot recycling station was sponsored by Maurice Sampson of Niche Waste Reduction & Recycling Systems and installed at Tiny WPA, a West Philly group that teaches youth and adults design, fabrication, and entrepreneurship skills to help participants literally build better neighborhoods.

"We love our new Dyvert trash and recycling system. The Vue makes recycling easy and straightforward. We learned so much just setting up our new trash and recycling bins. Things we thought were recyclable are actually trash and vice versa. Everyone needs the Vue!"
