Clothes to Good in South Africa
I stumbled upon my hopeful story at the Tommy Hilfiger fashion frontier programme and they were one of the finalists. It's an organisation called clothes to good and they're based in South Africa. I was so inspired by what they do. They are empowering people through using waste that would ususally be thrown away as a tool to teach people with autism or disability how to weave and make things like weighted blankets. I was just so moved to see a work that empowers people and creatively recycles and upcycles.
