It’s the little things that can make the biggest difference in a person’s life.
Our Mission
Through underwear donations, we aim to restore dignity, foster healthier communities, and reduce our environmental impact.
Access to proper hygiene and clean underwear promotes confidence, self-esteem, and security, which is essential for individuals to break the poverty cycle and achieve success within their community.
Our Purpose
-
Expanding Our Impact
The Undie Chest was born from a desire to expand our impact beyond supporting just women and girls to supporting the entire family.
Recognizing that 1 in 6 children worldwide faces extreme poverty, and with the added strain of the COVID-19 pandemic on families, we felt compelled to take greater action.
-
Reducing Our Environmental Impact
Our mission also extends to reducing our environmental footprint by diverting waste from landfills.
We accomplish this through donations of in-demand items like underwear, bras, and t-shirts. We also offer upcycling services for overstock and returns.
-
Restoring Dignity
Underwear plays a pivotal role in restoring dignity to individuals and families in need.
By providing clean, comfortable underwear, we can help people feel more confident and self-assured.
Our Focus
-
Combat Hygiene Poverty
Your donations help fight hygiene poverty, restoring dignity to those struggling to meet this basic need.

Boost Confidence
