Founded on a simple yet powerful idea – that no piece of clothing should ever go to waste – Clothing Please has grown from humble beginnings into a global force for environmental sustainability. As part of the Environmentally Concerned Organisation (E’Co), we are the epitome of the “Textile Fashion Circular Economy”.
What began in a small UK workshop in 1978, where we transformed old clothes into mechanics rags, has blossomed into a global movement for sustainable textile recycling. Innovative “Trade – Not Aid” programs were created in developing countries, empowering communities worldwide to turn textiles into livelihoods.
We believe every piece of clothing has value, regardless of its condition. While others might see a torn shirt or worn-out pants as trash, we see potential. Through innovative recycling methods, we keep textiles circulating in the economy, ensuring less than 1% ends up in landfills.
Every year in Australia, 720,000 tonnes of clothing are sent to landfills. That’s equivalent to each person throwing away about 28 kilograms of clothes annually. Together, we can change this. By partnering with Clothing Please, you’re joining a movement that’s proving waste is simply a resource in the wrong place.
Our partnerships span across communities and industries:
• Schools and educational institutions
• Charities and nonprofit organizations
• Fashion designers and manufacturers
• Retail businesses and corporations
• Government bodies
• Local community groups

E’Co can recycle 100%, so why landfill clothing when Recycling and Re-Using can create jobs in Australia, help Australians in need, and create even more jobs for people in 3rd world or developing nations ?
E’Co is committed to the responsible recycling of used clothing, both within Australia and beyond. But in March 2023, a troubling narrative emerged: discarded Australian garments, dubbed “Dead White Man’s Clothing,” were polluting African beaches and landfills. This wasn’t just a media headline; it was a crisis of environmental responsibility. To directly combat this issue, and to protect Australia’s reputation, E’Co took decisive action. We established a new, locally-run operation in Africa, specifically to collect and recycle clothing left behind by profit-driven exporters. Now, we employ individuals on the ground, ensuring these garments are recycled responsibly, preventing it from reaching beaches and landfills
We witnessed firsthand the brutal reality of life in Africa. We documented their struggle, the faces of 29 orphans and families scraping by on discarded trash, their stories etched in photographs and reports. Moved by their struggle, we redirected part of our funds to help them.
Today – we have helped convert desperate prostitution and abandoned
orphans / children into sustainable families – just by recycling old clothes, shoes and bags.
For over 40 years, we’ve seen firsthand how a simple donation of old clothes can transform lives— providing families with fresh food and education. This journey has sparked a passion within us to keep pushing forward. When you combine that passion with our unwavering commitment to protect the environment for future generations, you have a powerful driving force. At Clothing Please, our mission is dedicated to you. Without your support, our efforts to secure a better future for our families—whether in our own neighborhoods or overseas —would be incomplete. We’re not asking for money; we’re asking for your used clothing. United, we can make a far greater impact in preserving our environment.
