RECYCLE 4 REFUGEES
What is ‘Return and Earn’?
‘Return and Earn’ is a New South Wales Government program offering a 10-cent refund for every eligible drink container deposited at designated return points. It’s the largest litter reduction initiative in NSW and an ideal way to fundraise for charities, like Philoi Global.
Join the initiative!
Your school or church can partner with Recycle 4 Refugees by collecting and recycling your drink containers.
Before you deposit the bottles into the depositor, make sure to choose ‘Philoi Global’ in your app and scan the barcode in the Return and Earn machine.
Why get involved?
Educate the next generation: teach students about reducing waste, environmental responsibility, and the global refugee crisis.
Make a direct impact: Every bottle collected helps raise funds for life-saving programs.
Promote community service: Inspire youth to make a difference in the world.
Millions of refugees live in extreme conditions, facing hunger and hardships daily. At the same time, plastic waste harms the planet and its ecosystems. By recycling, we address both issues: reducing environmental harm, and supporting those in desperate need.
