Benches for Change

We're creating learning spaces with purpose because every child deserves a seat at the table. Join UnWood's mission to transform plastic waste into durable school benches for 33.75 million students in need across India.

THE PROBLEM WE ARE SOLVING

Millions of children in underserved schools sit on the floor every day, struggling to learn without a proper place to sit. They don't have the luxury of a simple school bench.

They sit on cold, dusty floors for hours—backs aching, legs numb, notebooks balancing on their knees—struggling to focus on lessons that could shape their future.
