In an era where sustainability is more crucial than ever, the impact of reusing clothing cannot be overstated. A study conducted by INTEXTER reveals that reusing just 1 kilogram of clothing saves an astonishing 25 kilograms of CO2 emissions. This statistic is part of a broader scientific consensus showing that extending the lifespan of clothing can reduce carbon emissions by up to 44%.

The Egyptian Clothing Bank is playing a vital role in this movement, redistributing over 5 million garments each year. This remarkable effort translates to a significant reduction in carbon emissions—approximately 25 million kilograms annually. Given that one kilogram of clothing typically produces 25 kilograms of carbon dioxide, our initiatives are making a tangible difference in the fight against climate change.

By promoting the reuse and redistribution of clothing, the Egyptian Clothing Bank not only supports those in need but also contributes to a healthier planet. Our commitment to sustainability demonstrates that small actions, like reusing garments, can lead to substantial environmental benefits.
