Responsibilities

I am the founder of the non-profit clothing exchange and donation platform and conscious women's community "Giver Tag". Nowadays, the ever-increasing popularity of "clothing swapping" and reuse is one of the best ways to combat the rampant consumerism that fast fashion imposes on us. The clothing and footwear industry accounts significant greenhouse gas emissions. Additionally, the textile industry is responsible for large amounts of microplastics entering water bodies. The damage and impact of climate change are immeasurable, but even big changes require small steps, which I invite the women of my country to take together. Will you join too?
