HP VIDEO | Rosette’s Story: Reinventing Impact in Haiti

Jun 16, 2017 11:05 AM ET

With limited access to clean water, people living in Haiti rely on bottled water. But because proper disposal methods aren’t in place, plastic bottles litter the land, canals, and shoreline. To help address this problem, HP has partnered with Thread International and the First Mile Coalition on a program that turns plastic bottles collected in Haiti into recycled plastic that is used to produce Original HP ink cartridges. In this video, Rosette Altidor shares her story of rebuilding her life after the devastating 2010 earthquake—and the impact this recycling program is having on her, her children, and others in her community.
