Greetings, and stay green!

The COVID-19 pandemic has taken a heavy toll on all of our lives. With #selfquarantine measures in place, everyday life has changed dramatically — many people have been laid off and left unable to work, and even online motorcycle-taxi drivers, cab drivers, and street vendors have struggled to make ends meet.

This hardship has moved many of us to help one another — through donations and by distributing basic food packages (sembako) to ease the burden on those struggling the most. Gerakan PASTI is deeply grateful to everyone who has stepped up to hit the streets and hand out these food packages.

But one thing has caught our attention: the widespread use of conventional plastic bags for these distributions. The growing, unchecked use of plastic bags in this effort has become a real concern for us.

That's why we're offering a solution — one that lets you keep helping your community while still protecting the environment. We're opening a donation drive to fund the production of eco-friendly, biodegradable plastic bags, which we'll then distribute to communities and volunteers handing out food packages.

From the community, back to the community. A local solution for Indonesia.

4R: Reuse, Reduce, Recycle & Return to Earth.
