EcoHub
Overview
The EcoHub is a one-of-a-kind community space that transforms recyclable waste into eco-currency, allowing people to access food, clothing, books, and more, all at reduced prices. It’s an alternative and unique shopping model built on a circular economy that supports both the environment and people in need. Rooted in sustainability and solidarity, the EcoHub promotes dignity, economic empowerment, and environmental awareness, making sustainability part of every day life.
