While clothing is considered a basic need, in times of extreme poverty it is generally the first thing to be set aside in favor of food and water, the World Clothes Line aims to provide necessary clothing for those who can't afford it.
For every item purchased, the company will match that amount and donate it to someone in a country of the customer's choice. The social business's ultimate goal is to eventually create an active clothing collection for every country in the world.
The clothes donated will provide functionality, protection and comfort to those who clothing is considered a luxury. The World Clothes Line is a socially conscious brand employing environmentally-conscious practices offering their workers fair wages in a sweatshop-free environment.
