Charities currently spend $13 million annually discarding unsellable donations, including underwear.
We partner with charities to prevent underwear donations from becoming landfill waste.

Meanwhile, we have a work-training partnership with Social Engine, supporting at-risk youth and Afghan female refugees, offering a safe place to learn work skills and prepare for mainstream work.
