A platform that promotes litter picking
Pirika
Used in 137 countries and regions, with over 470 million pieces of litter collected. Pirika makes cleanups by individuals, governments and companies visible and easier to join.
Activities from every site are gathered automatically, and results show in numbers. People understand why they pick up litter, and teammates' posts receive thanks. Pirika for Businesses and Organizations supports cleanups, and you can use the results for PR and internal sharing.
These are concerns we often hear from people in charge at companies and organizations.
Members just post a photo of their litter picking on a smartphone, and the activity is recorded automatically. Anyone can use the app (the Pirika litter-picking app) for free.
An "internal timeline" shows only the activity of your own company or group. Colleagues at distant sites connect through litter picking, which builds team spirit.
Participants, litter collected, activity maps and posts are gathered on a dedicated visualization page and shared inside and outside your organization. You can also post event notices and news.
Participants and litter collected are totaled automatically. Use the numbers in internal reports and in public communication.
Support after launch
From setup to campaigns and PR that uses your data, we support your operation all the way.
Merchandise
We make litter bags, tongs, vests, armbands and more with your logo. Hand them out at cleanup events to build a sense of participation among employees and members.
Boosting activity and engagement
We plan cleanup events, workshops, talks and more to fit your goals. They can also be used for health promotion, team building and anniversary events.
Wondering if it works at your size, or want to know the cost? Feel free to contact us at any stage.
