Who we are

We (are) ACT! We collect used textiles for reuse and recycling, in Kenya and Nigeria. 

Our efforts are focused on Africa, our motherland. She is a nurturing, loving, and a caring provider. We recognize that she deserves better. We aim to find solutions to end fashion waste that is causing harm to our environment and people. 

ACT is composed of ordinary people with extraordinary ideas on how to divert textiles from landfills. We enable a circular economy for textiles. We use the power of design and creativity to lower the footprint of the fashion industry while creating jobs. 

We distribute free and affordable clothing to underprivileged communities and we recycle materials in brand new items. Last, but not least, we support charity with Ksh 10.- for every kilogram we recycle!
