Final Impact

Over the course of its work, Upcycled completed all planned projects with a focus on reducing plastic waste, engaging communities, and creating durable assets for shared public spaces. Through small-scale manufacturing, education, and outreach, post-consumer plastic was transformed into benches, garden beds, picnic tables, and other structures that were donated to schools, libraries, parks, and community organizations. In addition to physical infrastructure, Upcycled reached students, volunteers, and community members through workshops, afterschool programs, events, and cleanups. These efforts emphasized environmental stewardship, creativity, and local responsibility, helping participants better understand the impacts of plastic waste and the value of hands-on solutions. With all programs and deliverables now complete, Upcycled is formally concluding its operations. The impact of this work continues through the structures installed in community spaces, the partnerships built along the way, and the shared learning that will inform future environmental efforts led by others.
