In 2012, Mike Maziya, the co-owner of manufacturing company Verigreen, noticed a woman carrying a bundle of plastic waste on her head. When he asked what she was doing, the woman said that she was unemployed and was selling plastic to recycling plants in order to earn a income.

Mike’s wife, Thina, was touched by this story of hardship and believed that there was an opportunity to uplift such women and help them earn better incomes.
