Ramase Lajan, meaning “Picking Up Money ” in Creole, is a
nationwide jobs and plastic recycling program developed by Executives Without
Borders and various international and local partners. The program created a
network of neighborhood community collection centers across the country where
Haitians turn in recyclables and are paid a fair market price for their hard
work. The community centers are operated by Haitian entrepreneurs who work with
their staff to crush and transport these recyclables to a local business, Haiti
Recycling, who transforms the materials into commodities that are sold on the
world market.
As of July 2012, the program has recycled over 420,000lbs of
materials and the community collection centers have paid out incomes exceeding
$66,000 to their neighbors for the collection of these recyclables. Dow has
sponsored a community collection center to bring this economic and
environmental opportunity to the coastal town of Petit-Goave, Haiti.

In 2011, Executives Without Borders
began a partnership with Dow Chemical Company and the U.S. Chamber of
Commerce’s Business Civic Leadership Center (BCLC) to create an initiative for
a skills-based volunteer program.This
program grew into the International Business Corps (IBC), a business-led
consortium of major multinational companies dedicated to enhancing the
capabilities of NGOs and entrepreneurs in emerging markets. In Brazil, IBC
members mobilize volunteer business experts and leverage their core business
functions in the delivery of social good.
In Rio de Janeiro, we work with three
of the top charitable organizations as pro bono partners: Bola Pra Frente,

24 volunteers on 16 projects in the areas of information technology, marketing,
communications, business planning, fundraising, event logistics and language

Central American Medical Outreach (CAMO) has been serving those in
need across Honduras for nearly 20 years. They operate 16 full-time medical
programs, completed over $2.3 million worth of community projects and were
named the most fiscally responsible NGO in Honduras. CAMO focuses on community
development and serves nearly 170,000 Honduras each year.
Over the last 4 years Executives Without Borders and Dow have
collaborated on numerous projects to improve the efficiency and long-term
sustainability of CAMO’s work across Honduras. Together, through effective
marketing and communications development we increased CAMO’s income to support
life-saving programs, and empowered local staff through business training and
mentorship.
