Recast Plastic recently showed one of these completed projects on its Facebook page. In Sumy Oblast, they helped equip a public shelter with durable, colorful benches made from 100% recycled plastic.

“The same plastic that could have become garbage. But it became a support. Literally. Every shelter we set up is a manifestation of our care. And the belief that even in the darkest moment, you can do something bright,” says Recast Plastic.
