The hubs work with community youths who are preserving and raising awareness towards environmental protection and preservation through recycling waste material into functional creatives that benefit the communities in return. Two brothers Obey, Aaron and Fortune Kuvenguhwa have been gathering scrap and turning it into creative functional projects. They have been moving between materials without defining boundaries clearly, and they mention that the idea of using scrap metal and other readily available inexpensive materials is applauded as African since it is an exploitation of what the environment offers.
They recently started Chariots and carriage projects where by artists are collecting scrap turning it into creative functional projects . In doing so they are reducing waste, creating employment opportunities for other community youths, reduce drug abuse and enhance creative solutions to community challenges. However, for these youths to reach their full potential and increase opportunities for other youths they need your support.
