OUR CLOTHING LINES>> Anmwe Haiti: To address the immediate need for financial support for Haiti earthquake relief, we have unveiled the first item in our Anmwe (help) Haiti collection. For the first six months of this launch, 100% of profits will be donated to Haiti earthquake relief through our partner non-profit organization, HOPE International. HOPE, founded in 1975, began with a mission to enable people in the developed world to connect with people in the poorest communities on earth through compassionate giving and other opportunities to help. They have been involved with social and economical development of Haiti since 1980. HOPE has committed resources and manpower to medical relief in the earthquake aftermath. HOPE has also committed full allocation of all fund earmarked for earthquake relief to directly fund efforts, no overhead is being taken.
Project Nicaragua: Every Project Nicaragua shirt sold provides 40 meals for a family of four throughout Nicaraguan villages in Masaya, Managua, and Leon. We have partnered with Chosen Children Ministries for our drops to Nicaragua. Our 2009 drop in Nicaragua was a huge success! Over 8000 meals received, 800 people fed, and two guys eternally humbled. But there is so much more left to do. Even with an old school bus filled with food, we had to turn people away. There are families starving still right now. So with that, we want to remind you that Project Nicaragua 2010 is going strong!
As a company and individuals, we are committed to the holistic development of impoverished and underdeveloped areas around the globe. This effort will, as it always has, require all of us to join in. By spreading the word of One Thread Outfitters, purchasing our apparel, and supporting our organizational partners, you are helping us make lasting change in our fragile world. You want. They need. We bridge the gap.
GATHERED by one thread outfitters: is a collection of accessories hand made by the people we empower. Each piece is carefully crafted and designed, carrying a vibrant and unique feel as diverse as the cultures from which they’re birthed. Every item you purchase helps provides aid to those who worked dutifully to create it.
GATHERED>>Project Nicaragua: Pieces made in Nicaragua are hand crafted by a group of women in San José de Cusmapa. With no standardized trash collection or recycling system in place, these women have used the desire to provide for their families and clean their community to convert the glass that litters their village into fashionable upcycled jewelry. Each piece purchased not only provides support for the women of Cusmapa, but also increases funding for Project Nicaragua which distributes food packets and mass feedings in impoverished villages across Nicaragua. Learn more about the Cusmapa women here.
