Celebrating 4,803 Pounds of Materials Saved from Landfill in August 2023

At Our Social Fabric, we are thrilled to share some exciting news from August 2023. Thanks to the incredible support of our donors, loyal customers, and dedicated volunteers, we have managed to divert a whopping 4,803 pounds of fabric and sewing-related materials from ending up in the landfill. This remarkable achievement would not have been possible without each and every one of you, and we want to extend our heartfelt gratitude.

Why It Matters

Every day, tons of textile waste find their way into landfills, contributing to environmental degradation and the depletion of valuable resources. At Our Social Fabric, we believe in the power of recycling and repurposing to reduce the impact of textile waste on our planet. By saving these 4,803 pounds of fabric and sewing-related materials, we have not only prevented them from adding to our ever-growing landfills but also given them a new lease on life.

A Big Thank You to Our Donors

We want to express our deepest appreciation to all our generous donors who continue to contribute quality fabrics and sewing supplies. Your willingness to share these valuable resources with us allows us to provide affordable and sustainable options to our community of sewists, crafters, and artists.

Heartfelt Thanks to Our Customers

To our amazing customers, thank you for choosing Our Social Fabric as your go-to source for fabrics and sewing materials. Your purchases not only support our mission but also help us keep these materials out of the landfill. Your commitment to sustainable crafting is truly inspiring.

Volunteers Make the Difference

Our dedicated team of volunteers is the backbone of Our Social Fabric. Their hard work and dedication in sorting, organizing, and maintaining our inventory play a crucial role in our success. We couldn't have achieved this milestone without you.

What's Next?

As we celebrate this achievement, we are more determined than ever to continue our mission of reducing textile waste and promoting sustainability in the sewing and crafting community. We invite you to join us in our journey to make a positive impact on the environment while pursuing your creative passions.

Together, we can make a difference, one metre of fabric at a time. Thank you for your unwavering support, and here's to a future where textile waste becomes a thing of the past.
