At Global Peace Containers, our mission is to renew shipping containers into sustainable and affordable schools, health clinics, community centers and housing. GPC's goal to contribute to global peace two-fold; by providing education assistance through the construction of new schools and community centers in areas of need, and to improve the economic conditions of such communities with shelter and medical facilities.

Using recycled shipping containers allows GPC to build quickly at half the cost. By using containers as construction material, we can keep debris out of landfills thus increasing the sustainability of forests and the greening of our planet.
