Millennium Fellowship Project: Waste Management Initiative at Chinese Camp Hostel
This project is primarily focused on waste management. Observing poor waste disposal in our nearby community, Chinese Camp Hostel, we decided to take the initiative to make a difference, especially on days when hired cleaners were not available. The target audience is fellow students residing in the hostel. The project accomplished better waste management practices on campus, improved the sanitation and health of the hostel, and filled the gap when cleaners were unavailable. The initiative also promoted the spirit of maintaining a clean environment through the actions of the project.
