“Heartbeat of Humanity” Every beat counts, every action matters

Hand-Over Plastic Caps to Cerebral Palsy Foundation 27 July 2024

In line with International Inner Wheel  slogan ”Heartbeat of
Humanity”  as well as our club vision to beat plastic pollution for a
cleaner environment. On Saturday 27th of July, Inner wheel club of Amman
Presided by Ms. Fadia Yared – accompanied by some of Committee members,
handed over a substantial quantity of plastic caps collected by club
members to the Cerebral palsy Foundation to be passed to “(Green
Wheelz) Initiative” whose aim is to clean the environment through
collecting, sorting and selling the caps to be recycled. Financial
returns of this procedure go to support cerebral palsy patients in terms
of health and education.
It is worthwhile mentioning that the environmental impact of plastic
caps is substantial. When not properly disposed of, they often end up in
our oceans, rivers, and other natural habitats. Marine animals,
mistaking them for food, can suffer from ingestion, leading to injury or
even death. Moreover, plastic caps contribute to the broader problem of
micro plastic pollution, breaking down into tiny particles that
contaminate our water sources and enter the food chain. When caps are
recycled, these caps can be transformed into a variety of new products,
from park benches to playground equipment, and even new packaging
materials.

The Committee of IWC of Amman extend its thanks and gratitude for the
members’ team spirit and constant cooperation in supporting this vital
sustainable project for the last six years. “Heartbeat of Humanity”
