We are, of course, immensely grateful for all the underwear donations we receive. That’s what we’re all about, after all. However, many supporters also make a financial contribution to help towards our running costs, which allows us to continue our work. And there’s a growing number of people who donate monthly by direct debit. Like any small charity, we have our fair share of financial challenges and your financial contributions – big and small – make such a difference. Thank you!

The need for brand new pants for people who can’t afford or don’t have access to them is never-ending, so I’m truly grateful to everyone who pops an extra packet into their shopping trolley or sends direct using, for example, our Amazon wish list bit.ly/wish-sfa. (Don’t forget you can switch to AmazonSmile through bit.ly/smile-sfa to raise FREE donations at the same time). Having pants allows women to stay in the workforce and girls to stay in school without having to take time off each month. Men need pants too of course. In fact, the majority of requests we receive from those supporting the homeless in the UK for example are for men’s pants. So every pair of brand new pants you send us is guaranteed to help give someone back their dignity at the very least. My thanks go to every one of you. To find out more, or donate using our wish list, see bit.ly/underwear-sfa. Maria. #gratefulatchristmas #dignity 🩲🩳🙏❤🎄 ... See MoreSee Less

Today, I’d like to say a huge thank you to @ironmountain. From January to November this year alone, we distributed approximately 260,000 pairs of new pants and new and gently worn bras. Being able to package up the underwear to fulfil all the requests we receive is a challenge. While we reuse as much as possible of the packaging/boxes people send their donations to us in, we never have quite enough. So we were thrilled to receive a pantastic donation of 500 cardboard boxes from Iron Mountain today! These will be an enormous help to us in the coming weeks and months. Any such donations, gifts or awards that can help us help more people are always immensely appreciated. Maria. #gratefulatchristmas #donate 🎁📦🙏❤🎄 ... See MoreSee Less
