Description
Stichting West Kleedt Aan: sharing clothes and preventing waste
Stichting West Kleedt Aan runs two giveaway shops in Amsterdam-West: one for adults at Jan van Schaffelaarplantsoen and one for children at Lidewijdepad. You can bring or pick up clothing, and small repairs are done in the sewing studio to make clothes last longer. The initiative focuses on reuse, reducing textile waste, and supporting local residents who could use a helping hand.

Why do we like this? Because good clothing gets a longer life while also helping people in the community.
