Transforming Waste into Wealth: The Inspiring Journey of Persatuan Warisan Kraft Wanita 🌟

At Impactlution, we believe in the power of communities to drive sustainable change. One such inspiring story comes from our collaboration with the Persatuan Warisan Kraft Wanita, an NGO comprising B40 housewives aged between 30 and 60 from October 2022 to the present. These incredible women have embraced the Waste to Wealth program, turning recyclable materials into sources of income and uplifting their community.
