WormingUpWormingUpWormingUp is an accredited social enterprise based in Kuching Sarawak, founded in 2015. We are using insect farming (black soldier fly) as a means for organic waste disposal to avoid landfilling. We are a group of Borneo youths which keen on environmental issues. Our team members consist of different races, Chinese, Malay, and Dayak who all are of young ages under 30 and passionate about conserving our precious organic resources instead of simply dumping/bury. Since we are still undergraduates, we have started working and partnering with various local organizations in running environmental programmes and workshops. Till now, we are 4-years graduated from Uni and fully committed to the organization.
(i) To continue our organic waste reduction routine
Every generation of our army – the maggot of black soldier fly has great mission which is reducing organic waste. After they are matured, we will put these maggots back to their cycle to maintain their population. Their appetites are crucial to fight against the food waste issue (especially unavoidable food waste such as fish offal, rotten vege etc). They are live animals, eating 24/7 and the cycle cannot be stopped whenever we wish to, even during this MCO.
(ii) To maintain our talented B40 community
We first started with 2 of us in 2015 and currently able to employ 3 full time passionate B40 community to help in the operation. Our monthly expense is mainly overhead which approximately RM10,000 for five of us in the organization.
During this MCO, no event is allowed, yet we still carry out our back end organic waste reduction operation, which this lead us to a hard time. Hence, we are here to run our first ever fundraising event to hope to get your support to sustain our cause
