- Rychie ZhengGeneral Manager at Conal Footwear 
When I first met Caitlin and found out what she was doing with Project Ropa, we were instantly on board. We produce extra high quality inventory every month so it was a perfect solution for us to put it to a good cause. Furthermore it's been extremely fulfilling to see pictures of people wearing our product with smiling faces. Highly recommend talking with Caitlin about how any extra inventory you have can go to good use.

Why Become a Corporate Sponsor?
- Positive Brand Image: Collaborating with a nonprofit engaged in socially and environmentally responsible activities enhances a company’s reputation. Consumers are increasingly seeking brands that demonstrate a genuine commitment to making a positive impact, and partnering with your nonprofit can showcase the company’s dedication to sustainability and community well-being.
- Environmental Stewardship: By diverting textiles and shoes from landfills and extending their usefulness, companies can directly contribute to reducing waste and environmental degradation. This aligns with global efforts to minimize the negative ecological footprint of production and consumption. Such actions showcase a company’s dedication to sustainable practices and can attract environmentally conscious customers.
- Local Community Engagement: Partnering with a nonprofit that operates locally fosters community engagement and goodwill. Companies can demonstrate that they care about the well-being of their neighbors by helping to provide essential resources to those in need. This can strengthen community ties and build a loyal customer base that values the company’s active involvement.
- Employee Engagement and Morale: Corporate Social Responsibility initiatives can boost employee morale and engagement. Many employees want to work for companies that prioritize values beyond profit, and participating in such initiatives can create a sense of pride and purpose among the workforce.
- Innovation and Collaboration: Collaborating with a nonprofit can lead to innovative solutions for waste reduction and social impact. Companies may discover new ways to repurpose materials, improve supply chain efficiency or even create unique products from upcycled textiles. This kind of collaboration can drive creativity and open doors to fresh business opportunities.
- Long-Term Sustainability: Supporting a nonprofit that focuses on redistributing unwanted textiles aligns with the circular economy concept, where resources are kept in use for as long as possible. This contributes to a more sustainable business model and can lead to cost savings over time by reducing waste disposal expenses.
- Measurable Impact: Partnering with a nonprofit enables companies to quantifiably measure the positive impact they are making on both the environment and the local community. This data can be shared with stakeholders, investors and customers to showcase the tangible benefits of the partnership.
