Breaking the Wall of Homelessness
Brickify is a for profit social enterprise with mission to tackle the plastic waste and housing deficit problems. We recycle plastic wastes into paving bricks used to construct roads and low cost houses. Our focus is on circular economy whereby we enable and reward all participating individuals and households to collect, sort and submit their plastic waste in reward for domestic materials such as soaps, snacks, home appliances etc The bricks work in a “lego” fashion i.e. they interlock and do not need additional materials added to them when being used for construction. We became legally registered in 2019 and are an eleven man team. Our current partners include several state and national government agencies, corporate organizations, non profit organizations etc.
