Their project gave a second life to a discarded meeting table, transforming it into accessible storage designed for seniors at New Life Community Services. This thoughtful creation promotes creativity by providing easy access to craft materials within the community.
The competition encouraged participants to take ownership of waste management by rethinking, reusing, and redesigning bulky items. It reinforced the importance of making sustainable choices and reducing waste at its source.
