Our history
The Earth and being, created in 2007 as a result of the Pisco Earthquake, is a non-profit organization with two main purposes: to save lives in natural, ecological and human disasters due to the alignments taught by our founder, Mrs. Lily Cuculiza within his more than 52 years of uninterrupted work in favor of the most vulnerable people in our country, also including caring for the environment by forming Social Ecowarriors.
We started the bottle cap collection program because of a group of young people who brought us the idea and later died in a car accident before making a delivery of biomechanical devices in the mountains of our country. This is how the project came into our hands and, inspired by the hard work of these young women, it was given the name Recycling I go: “Walk recycling to help other people”.
