“Find a way, not an excuse.”

With this intention, four young people started a project that connects nature conservation and animal welfare with humanitarian aid.

The biggest Recycling Village in the world emerges from over 250 tonnes of collected plastic waste. From this, nature, animals and humans are benefitting.

My name is Robin. I am a sponsor and have already been a volunteer there. It was clear to me long before Project Wings that I would like to contribute something meaningful to make the world a bit better. In my opinion, however, there are so many really cool organisations worthy of support that I sometimes lose track. I was also a bit unsure whether the money actually arrives where it’s needed. However, Project Wings makes a point of combining everything that is important to me in their project, including: environmental, animal and human protection. So, without hesitation I spontaneously packed my things and travelled to Sumatra so that I could see for myself who receives my money and it’s used for, to learn more about the Project and to get to know a few of the awesome people there. It really was an unbelievable experience which I will never forget. I can really only advise you all to take this step, too.

Robin

I had been made aware of the Project in Frankfurt last year. I met Marc, the founder, on the street and got excited about the Project. I instantly thought, “what a great idea!”. Plastic waste is becoming a huge problem that we must do something about. Then I decided to visit the project myself in Sumatra in February 2020. I must say that I am impressed and that it’s worth every cent you’re donating.

Here, plastic waste is being processed and I find that really amazing. Everyone should try to come here to watch this process.

Here is a Facebook and Instagram video!
