Yes, you did read that right! Oxfam UK are on the lookout for old bras of all shapes and sizes to send to Senegal, where they will be sold on to help raise raise money that will go towards more poverty busting work around the globe.
Here’s how it works –
- Find your bras that don’t fit
- Donate them to your local Oxfam
- Recycling facility send them to Senegal
- They are then sold via Frip Ethique (see below)
Clothes sorter at Frip Ethique, Dieynaba Coly, said –
Now I work for here, not only am I able to take care of more people but also my parents and my sister who are in the village.
What an amazing project, and you can be part of it. So why not have a dig around and find those bras that looked better in the shop than actually on, and help raise much needed funds for the woman of Senegal with Oxfam UK.
