Sustainability
We love our world!
“Nature itself is the best physician.” – Hippocrates
We are mindful of environmental and socio-economic values to ensure the sustainability of our planet.
We intend to re-use and re-purpose throughout our program wherever we can.
Our goal is for One&All to be self-sufficient.
Sustainability is about acts of kindness to each other, to the materials we choose to use and the purposes we use them for.
Re-using and recycling in our program:
Our donors, sponsors and business partners have donated and saved from landfill a significant number of textiles, furniture, and other items, which are reused or repurposed in our program.
Business partners and customers purchase our art, pot plants, merchandise, and other products made in-house by participants in our workshops.
Vegetables grown in our urban garden are used for juice making workshops, with juice then sold at market days.
Fabrics heading for landfill are saved and repurposed in our weaving workshops.
Artists can design and develop up-cycling workshops to create new artworks and products.
Income generated from our social enterprise is put back into existing workshops and activities to support our participants.
