At Ecotron, we believe that education needs concrete support, not just words. That’s why, together with our partners at ECOarena, we have turned waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) collection campaigns into a real opportunity for children in communities: providing school supplies where they are most needed.
In September, we organized several activations in rural areas of Iași County, where old devices handed in for recycling were converted into school supplies.
Examples include the initiative in Popești, carried out in collaboration with the Popești Town Hall, and the one in Valea Lupului, alongside “Profesor Mihai Dumitriu” High School and local partners. In both cases, every collected device meant less pollution and direct support for students in the community.
These initiatives show that a simple gesture—such as handing in a broken device—can have a double impact: protecting the environment and supporting education.
At Ecotron, we believe every action matters, and that recycling can become an investment not only in the planet’s future, but also in the future of children in rural communities.
