Heirs Insurance Group, Nigeria’s fastest-growing insurance group, has rolled out a project to empower underserved communities with the training and benefits inherent in up-cycling, as part of its sustainability goals.
Tagged: “The Good project,” Heirs Insurance Group sensitised communities on the benefits of converting waste materials to reusable items, thereby reducing the consequences of climate action and uplifting the financial status of people.
In addition, the group provided school supplies and a cash donation to over 500 schoolchildren of Makoko community, Lagos State.
The Good Plastic Project reaffirms the Group’s commitment to environmental sustainability and community development.
The project was executed in partnership with Slum2School Africa and Eco Barter, which both share its vision for sustainability and social impact.
