What do we do with clothing that no longer can be sold as grade A goods? At HRT TEXTILES, we have taken a proactive approach through our cooperation with the NGO, Mission Afrika. We ship the clothing to Mali, where Donni-Donni, a local NGO, resells the clothes in small shops. The project raises revenue for development activities in a finically, socially, and environmentally sustainable manner.
Mission Afrika and Donni-Donni ensure that all proceeds go to development projects in Mali, where nearly 50% of the population lives in poverty.
These projects primarily involve education for children and young people and village development projects focusing on women.
