Our Impact
Restoring dignity and hope
Clean clothes and shoes may seem like a small thing to those who have access to them every day. But, to someone in need, a new outfit that is the right size, style and appropriate for their particular needs can be the key that opens the door to a better life.
At Project Ropa, we believe that everyone deserves to feel good about themselves. Our mobile services are a place of hope and transformation, where our clients can find clean, stylish clothing that boosts their confidence and helps them take the next step on their journey. That’s why we provide our clients with hand-selected clothing and shoes they’ll be proud to wear.
Our mobile clothing closet is more than just a place to find clothes – it’s a space where our clients receive one-to-one advice and care that restores dignity and rekindles optimism. Join us in making a difference in the lives of those in need.
Reducing Waste
Project Ropa works directly with companies to divert surplus, imperfect, sample and secondhand clothing items and shoes from ending up in landfills and giving them a second chance at life.
Two out of every ten garments manufactured worldwide are considered waste, contributing to significant environmental pollution. Project Ropa seeks to divert some of this wasted clothing into resources for people in need.
Every donated item that we receive is meticulously sorted and either distributed to those in need in our community, recycled, repurposed or sold. All the proceeds from items that we sell are directly used towards funding our services for homeless and low-income individuals and families.
