To give these children a better chance at educational success, Clothes to Good (C2G), in collaboration with Rise Against Hunger (RAH), have started the 'Clothes to Food & Play' initiative.

By students recycling their clothes through C2G, funds will be raised to provide highly nutritious meals to children in low resourced ECD centres.

Clothes to Good in partnership with the Durban Youth Council (DYC) and Rise Against Hunger is recycling clothes to pack 100,000 meals and make 1000 toys at Reddam House Umhlanga on 18 July 2019 to support low resourced Early Childhood Development centres (creches).

If your school or company is within the Amanzimtoti, Ballito and Pietermaritzburg triangle, then join us by starting your project this June and bring in your old clothes to be recycled. Remember 1 bag of clothes raises enough for 5 meals.

Sarushka Naidoo is student leader at Durban Youth Counsel is leading the programme. Contact Jesse at Clothes to Good on 074 242 7414 to participate or email [email protected] .
