Growing The Movement

About the Award

“Growing the Movement – celebrating local heroes (individuals or groups) raising awareness, inspiring change and spreading the aroha of the zero waste kaupapa.”

This would not have been possible without the support of our corporate partners, community supporters, and incredibly hard-working All Heart NZ team.

“Joseph Youssef is the founder, Chief Encourager and trustee of All Heart NZ Charitable Trust. All Heart NZ partners with corporates to practically redirect and repurpose redundant and unwanted items. In helping build up All Heart NZ, Joe has become an advocate for zero waste, encouraging businesses to set up more sustainable procurement processes. In the last four years, All Heart NZ has supported their corporate partners to divert more than 3,000 tonnes of ‘stuff’ – that’s about the same weight as 30 blue whales! It’s also created employment for 20 people and more than 50 volunteers.”
