Our Artisans of Hope project trains people with limited income opportunities to create fine art from discarded materials like Nespresso capsules, eggshells, and leftover tiles. These artisans are able to make a good living from their highly sought-after work. All proceeds from artisan products are then poured into NVC’s feeding program for undernourished children or those affected by disasters.
At this time, we only accept single-serve coffee capsules made of aluminum or other metals. Unfortunately, plastic coffee pods are not pliable and can’t be used for our crafts. Drop off your capsules at the following locations:
| Makati: 9 Hidalgo San Lorenzo Village (Attn: Nena) |
San Juan: Fiesta Greetings Bldg. 160 Alfonso XIII, San Juan (Attn: Mariel Tolentino) |
Pasig: Unit E124, Tower E-1 Alexandra Condominium (Attn: Adele Olives) |
Taguig: Ines Moda Infantil 2A Kensington Place 1st Avenue, BGC +63917-6223318 (Attn: Joy) |
| Bacolod: 54 Lizares Avenue, Bacolod City (Attn: Hermie) or 1Point BDO Doll Building |
Cebu: Island Grill, 4th Floor Ayala Center Cebu |
Nespresso stores will accept your used pods and turn them over to us.
Aside from the artisans who benefit from each upcycled Nespresso art piece that collectors acquire, all proceeds of these pieces go back to NVC’s development projects. For those of you who support this project by purchasing art pieces or donating used Nespresso capsules, thank you on behalf of the hungry little stomachs you help feed.
