Spotlight on Earthlink Kids
Our friends at Earthlink Kids are all about saving the planet - one person at a time
Doing good on all fronts, they work with those with mental health, and other similar barriers, to help them get into employment - through things like work experience, mainly in their recycling department.
Earthlink Kids is a part of this division
Earthlink Kids takes unwanted corporate uniforms and turns them into cute outfits for kids. Not only are they keeping textile waste out of landfill, but they're also raising money to help keep their operations running.

Delivery drivers pick up the meals from the Brooklyn Community Centre in Harrison Street from approximately 11:15am - 11:30am and then go out on their run which takes around an hour and a half.
