OUR COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS.

Plastic ArtCycle is an evolving program centered around creative and educational ways to repurpose plastic. Our mission is to transform discarded plastic --especially items like color chips-- into engaging tools for learning, art, and joyful experimentation. As part of our color-matching process, we produce small plastic "chips" at our plants to verify color accuracy. Rather than letting these chips become waste, we've started collecting them, hoping they can find new life through creativity and community.

Our exciting new partnership with Chester, Ridley and Crum Creek Watersheds (CRC) opens up incredible opportunities for us to help clean, restore, and work toward safeguarding the ecosystems that surround us -- right in our own backyard. Activities throughout the year include sponsoring and participating in community stream clean ups, planting trees to support native habitat and biodiversity, adopting a site to maintain trees for long term impact, and educational programming to foster stewardship.

We will foster mentorship and team building, as we share the powerful experience of growing something from nothing. Young people will get outside, put their hands in the dirt and their hearts into helping others, learning that their actions matter. Group meetings, guest speakers, and field work will focus on environmental problems created by human activities and the actions, big or small, that can be taken to help. This club encourages hands-on learning, cultivates leadership, and helps students stay connected to their community in a meaningful and fun way.
