Question from Teecycle Tim
I was inspired to re-purpose old t-shirts after reading “Let My People Go Surfing” by the founder of Patagonia clothing, who said “The most responsible way for a consumer and a good citizen to buy clothes is to buy used.” They’re the greenest tees.
So I started collecting people’s donated used t-shirts and put them on www.teecycle.org, where I donate $1 from selling each shirt to restoring urban rivers in Milwaukee (where I live). It’s gotten a great response so far.
I’m still collecting old t-shirts, and if anyone is interested you can email me at tim (@) teecycle (dot) org on where to send them. I’d greatly appreciate it! Thanks!
Tim
