Cans for Kai
Cans for Kai is our new initiative where consumerism waste becomes a community treasure, supporting our commitment to sustainability.
Phoenix Recycling Group in collaboration with LegaSea, Papatūānuku Kōkiri Marae, Westhaven Marina, and the Outboard Boating Club, is excited to introduce this innovative fundraising initiative that not only addresses environmental concerns but also – fuels the growth of our Kai Ika Project.

How Cans for Kai Works
Collection points: We collect aluminium cans at various locations, including Westhaven Marina, Outboard Boating Club (OBC), Orakei Marina, and Papatūānuku Kōkiri Marae.
Recycling process: Our recycling partner Phoenix Recycling Group pay us for the collected aluminium cans, providing financial support and contributing to our independence. Recycling aluminium is not only economically beneficial but also environmentally responsible, as it is infinitely recyclable.
Engage with Cans for Kai
Cans for Kai is more than just a fundraiser – it’s about promoting the value of recycling and supporting a sustainable circular economy model. Join us in assisting local councils in achieving their zero-waste goals.
