Article: November was BIG - record-breaking big!

November was BIG - record-breaking big!

Thanks to your incredible support, we diverted 11,485 lbs of fabric and sewing supplies from Canadian landfills last month. That’s our highest total this year

To put that into perspective: 11,485 lbs is roughly the weight of an African elephant 🐘 - all saved from the waste stream and given a second life through sewing, creativity, and community.

Every donation you make, every metre you buy, and every project you stitch helps keep textiles out of landfill and in circulation.

And of course, a massive shoutout to our volunteers - the heart of OSF. Your sorting, lifting, organizing, and care make numbers like this possible. We’re endlessly grateful for you. 

Together, we’re building a more sustainable future, one pound at a time.
