After collecting tons of unwanted clothing during our Get Redressed Month citywide clothing drive, the Redress team and our volunteers spent three days weighing the boxes and setting up the space for the Sort-a-thon, our largest volunteer event of the year. In 2022, we welcomed 40 corporate and community teams of 10, participating across eight 3-hour shifts, to sort through every garment collected in the Clothing Drive to ensure they are given new life.
It took a lot of people power to work through the mountain of unwanted clothing. With smiles and enthusiasm, bolstered by refreshments, a live DJ, and yoga/dance movement breaks, a total amount of 16.2 tonnes was sorted for reuse. The clothing was redistributed to eight key charity partners (60%), for resale (17%, mostly at our Winter 2022 Pop-up), and downcycling (21%).
