Story

Support Team Westpac to #WearTheChange2020
 
Participating team members will commit to wearing the same garment every day from June 15-19 (Refugee Week) to showcase fashion that is made fair, made for good & good for the planet!
 
This challenge raises funds for The Social Outfit’s community program that support refugee & new migrant women to settle better in Sydney.
 
Click "Donate" to make a pledge or "Join Team" to participate in the challenge yourself!
 
About The Social Outfit: A fashion label with a difference, The Social Outfit provides fair and dignified employment pathways in the fashion industry to female humanitarian migrants, many of whom come with amazing sewing skills and experience! Only 20% of women from refugee backgrounds are engaged in the workforce, and research shows the need for customized pathways to employment to support a more positive settlement experience.
 
The Social Outfit's clothing collections are not only ethically made right here in Sydney, but they also collaborate with local brands to rescue their excess fabrics and trims from landfill and give them a new life in our clothing collections. www.thesocialoutfit.org
 
What will the funds be used for? All funds raised will go towards supporting The Social Outfit to bring their community learning programs online. In response to Covid-19, The Social Outfit rapidly began moving their sewing, craft and retail training programs online, now funding is urgently needed to further design, develop and implement these programs to support refugee women with quality training and employment pathways.
