e'Pap Cares for the Environment



The e’Pap team joined forces with rhino conservationist and activist, Sam Nkomo and his fellow walkers on Saturday 22 November to clean Bulawayo’s filthy streets.  Sam jumped around at the last minute to get his walkers to work with us and it is living proof that he is a man of action, rather than words.  His commitment to the environment is total.  Thanks Sam and team for working with us.

Organised by the City of Bulawayo,  under the Bulawayo Solid Waste Improvement Platform (BSWIP) this multi-stakeholder initiative is determined to help restore the city to its former glory of being the cleanest city in the country and beyond.


Before we left to clean “our” street, we were entertained by some great dancers and we got to meet the mascot for the African Youth Games about to start here.  Our team cleaned 5th Ave, including the noxious market and we were proud to do our bit for our environment. 

e’Pap Zimbabwe is committed to, “reduce, reuse, recycle” and our “Gogo” project to reuse our bags is gaining popularity.  We also no longer have to buy bags for our seedlings.  




 In the Eastern Cape the e'Pap feeding scheme uses the bags for carpet protection and as "raincoats" for the little ones!
