The drives do not run themselves
Do you venture into waste entrepreneurship?
Why people stay
From the people already doing it
“I joined for one Saturday clean-up. Eight months later I coordinate the whole Kibra stretch and three of the collectors I trained are earning through the app.”
“The sorting game works better than any lecture. The children correct their parents afterwards — that is the part nobody plans for.”
“Logging my hours in the app meant I had a verified record to put on a bursary application. That mattered more than the badge did.”
