She asks for lovers of chips not to throw out empty bags from under the chips.
26-year-old student and ecologist from Detroit. She asks for chips lovers: instead of throwing empty bags from under chips into the garbage, sacrifice them so that she can turn them into sleeping bags and distribute them homeless.
Fans of chips hand over their empty packages in two places in Detroit: in the printing house and in the clothing store, where Olyte and its volunteers take them.
It takes about four hours to sew a sleeping bag, and each goes from 150 to 300 chips, depending on whether it is individual or family.
Since the launch in 2020, as part of the Chip Bag Project project, more than 800,000 chips have been collected, and 110 sleeping bags were created in December last year.
Her family left Nigeria for the United States ten years ago in the hope of a better life, and his comrades-volunteers. «We strive to influence not only society but also on the environment», she says.
