Get Redressed Month is an annual campaign that shines a spotlight on the issue of clothing waste. Our signature events encourage Hongkongers to rethink how they buy, use and dispose of clothing. In October 2021, thousands of companies, clubs, schools and individuals across Hong Kong chose to give their unwanted clothes a new life by participating in Hong Kong’s largest clothing drive, and some went even further and gave secondhand clothing a try too.
We were delighted to be able to run our three signature campaign events this year: the Get Redressed Clothing Drive; our large-scale clothes-sorting event, the Sort-a-thon; and our popular secondhand Autumn Pop-Up Shop. We were overwhelmed with the out-pouring of support for the campaign from companies, schools and retailers, with many partners returning for the second, third and even fourth time; and new school and company recruits taking part in the clothing drive, hosting educational talks, organising Get Redressed Days and even running their own mini secondhand pop-up stores!
