Earth Month: Changing Lives and Reshaping Retail
Earth Month is one of my favorite times of the year because it reminds us that caring for the planet and caring for people can (and should!) go hand in hand. When you support The Undie Chest, you’re doing both—reducing waste and restoring dignity by donating new underwear to people who truly need it.
Looking for a Charity to Support? How Retailers Can Create Meaningful, Measurable Impact in Their Communities
If you’re a retailer looking for a meaningful way to give back, you’re not alone. We work with businesses that want their impact to be thoughtful, measurable, and rooted in dignity. This blog walks through why essentials matter, how retail partnerships work, and how your business can support women, youth, and schools in ways that truly make a difference.
Buy One, Donate One This Valentine’s: Support Women in Need
Valentine’s Day often comes with a reason to refresh. A new bra. New underwear. Something that feels good to wear, whether you’re shopping for someone special or simply treating yourself.
What many people don’t think about in that moment is how rare these same items are for others. New bras and underwear are everyday essentials, yet they’re some of the most requested and least accessible items for people facing hardship.
Gift Ideas for Valentine’s and Galentine’s Day: Give The Gift of Love and Dignity
Valentine’s Day and Galentine’s Day are all about love—love for a partner, love for friends, love for ourselves. But what if this year, we widened that circle just a bit? What if we turned these feel-good days into a chance to share love with women, girls, and families who need it most?
At The Undie Chest, we believe love shows up in practical, powerful ways. Sometimes, love looks like new underwear. Sometimes, it looks like a caring community saying, “You matter.”
A New Year. A Fresh Start. A Powerful Way to Give Back.
For many retailers — and individuals alike — January is a season of reflection and reset. You’re looking at what worked, what didn’t, and what you want to do differently this year. And right alongside sales goals, inventory planning, and personal resolutions, there’s a growing question we hear more and more often: How can I give back in a way that truly matters?
