Upcycling bags locally from disposed plastic bags enable Abwezi to keep prices for the school bag affordable. Besides offering the bags to individuals who can afford it, the enterprise also targets NGOs, companies and well-wishers that buy bags by the bulk and distribute them for free to less privileged communities. Households with no access to electricity make up about 90% of the Malawian population, thus the integrated solar panel provides these families with clean and free energy for lighting, facilitating after-school-learning.
