About Our Foundation
Vision and Values
Our vision is to inspire and empower individuals to take action against litter, recognizing that a healthier environment enhances our quality of life, promotes environmental stewardship, and builds a strong sense of community. We believe in the values of environmental sustainability, civic engagement, collaboration, and education as the foundation for achieving our mission.
Community Engagement and Clean-up Initiatives
At OLR, we firmly believe that community engagement is the key to success in our efforts to combat litter. We motivate community members through litter clean-up events, partnering with local businesses, schools, community groups, and government agencies. These events bring people together, fostering a sense of unity and pride in keeping our communities litter free.
Education and Awareness
We understand the importance of education in driving long-term behaviour change. Our organization conducts educational programs, and campaigns to raise awareness about the harmful effects of litter on the environment, wildlife, and human health. By promoting responsible waste management practices, recycling, and reducing single-use plastic consumption, we empower individuals to make more sustainable choices and become advocates for a litter-free future.
Advocacy and Policy
OLR actively engages in advocacy efforts to influence policy changes that support litter reduction and waste management. We collaborate with local and regional authorities to strengthen regulations, promote extended producer responsibility, and advocate for improved infrastructure for waste collection and recycling. Our goal is to create an enabling environment that encourages sustainable practices and holds individuals and organizations accountable for their actions.
