The Skip Social Closetswere very quickly embraced by the public, as a result of which the goals set were exceeded and to date they have been collected over 12.5 tons of laundry and they have benefited by clothing more than 22,000 people and 95 agencies.
At the same time, Skip Social Closet it also has an environmental character, since through its action it contributes to the protection of the environment due to the reduced emission of CO2 for the production of new clothes. So, over the course of 1 year, our planet was “saved” from 664,220 kg of CO2.
A partner in this circular economy model (ReUse, Upcycle, Recycle) is the organization Fabric Republic. The clothes collected from the Social Closets are washed with Skip detergents and Fabric Republic makes them available, clean and unselected, to our fellow human beings who need them. In this way, every wardrobe in our house turns into a Social Wardrobe and makes us participants in this great chain of supply to man and the planet.
The Skip Social Closets have been placed in Municipalities of Alimos, Kifisia-Nea Erythraia and Zografouin the The Ellinikon Experience Parkas well as at Athens Olympic Center (OAKA). And because people’s messages for additional Social Closets exceeded expectations, soon, you will be able to find them 5 new Skip Social Closets in the characteristic shape of t-shirts designed/crafted by street artists, inside and outside Attica, thus adding even more positive impact to our society and environment.
