This is an incredible nonprofit that is truly making a difference through education as well as doing the real work to ensure that the textile industry becomes more sustainable. They've already ensured that a million pounds of textiles did not go into landfills. I'm also impressed that major brands are participating with Loopt on certifications and other projects to create more sustainable closed loop systems.
