RECICLA SAN PANCHO

RECICLA SAN PANCHO is a community recycling initiative funded and managed in a cooperative agreement between the organizations entreamigos and Alianza Jaguar A.C. in San Pancho.

RECICLA SAN PANCHO has two full time staff members and organizes recycling pick ups at local restaurants, businesses and schools.  Residents can drop off their recycling at the the designated Recycling Bodega or can bring it to the store at entreamigos

RECICLA SAN PANCHO has been focusing on finding innovative local uses for the recycled products and has spawned a series of small business enterprises for local residents.  Beautiful glasses are being made from recycled wine bottles, as well as candles, goblets and others.  Women make belts and bracelets from soda can tabs, purses, picture frames and collage art from magazines, jewelry boxes from newspaper and orange peels and many other amazing products from items that were previously disregarded as trash.

RECICLA SAN PANCHO is entirely funded by private donations and the small income from products sold.  Our goal is to continue to work together with other organizations to create a regional sustainable recycling program in the Riviera Nayarit region.
