Sure We Can is a non-profit recycling center, community space and sustainability hub in Brooklyn, NY. Sure We Can was born in 2007 to respond to the need of canners, people who collect cans and bottles from the streets to redeem them for 5 cents each. Today, it has evolved into a community center that promotes a sustainable urban culture and facilitates a circular economy. Our mission is to support the local community, particularly the most vulnerable residents, and promote social inclusion, environmental awareness and economic empowerment. Sure We Can is a place where canners, youth, schools and neighbors get together, understanding the value of waste through recycling, composting, gardening, arts & crafts and other initiatives.
