About Us
Background
Welcome to Obutonde. A youth-led movement transforming waste into opportunity and restoring balance between people and the environment. Through innovation, action, and community-driven solutions, we are building a cleaner, more sustainable future—starting today.
Founded on the principles of circular economy and community collaboration, we believe that small, local actions can lead to significant global impact. From our door-to-door waste collection programs to our urban farming initiatives, every project is designed to be scalable, sustainable, and centered around the people we serve.
Who We Are

Obutonde is not just an organization; it is a movement driven by the energy, creativity, and determination of its youthful members. Our mission is simple yet profound: to catalyze positive change by promoting waste recycling, reducing waste generation, and fostering environmental stewardship With each initiative, from reforestation to sustainable practices, we strive to harmonize human ambition with the rhythms of nature
