Thank you for helping us so actively with this task!
Why are recycling and sharing so important?
Simply by recycling used furniture, textiles, and electrical appliances, we actively contribute to reducing our region's ecological footprint. Every piece of furniture passed on means fewer new purchases, fewer transport routes, and fewer mountains of waste. This is circular economy in action – practical, local, and social.
Ecological principle & sustainability in Kleeblatt Rheine eV
For us, sustainability is much more than a buzzword—it is the foundation of our daily work. At Kleeblatt Rheine eV, we combine social responsibility with ecological foresight. Every piece of furniture, every piece of clothing, every electrical appliance that finds its way to us is given a second chance.
Instead of throwing valuables away with bulky waste, we collect and inspect donations. Anything that's still usable is processed and donated to our social department store. This way, we achieve three benefits at once:
- ♻️ Resource conservation – Things are reused rather than destroyed. This reduces waste and saves energy, raw materials, and CO₂.
- 💚 Social impact – People in need can purchase clothing, furniture, or household goods at low prices.
- 🤝 Meaningful jobs – our employees gain valuable professional experience and future opportunities through training.
Our guiding principle
We believe that social cohesion and environmental protection are not mutually exclusive, but rather perfect partners. Those who donate, shop, or volunteer with us not only support people in need but also make an important contribution to our environment.
🌿 Kleeblatt Rheine eV – because helping can also be sustainable. 🌿
