Know Your Clothing – Donation

SUPPORT the "Know your clothing" campaign

Know Your Clothing is a campaign spearheaded by TS Designs, a wholesale apparel screen-printing company operating in North Carolina since 1978. With the rise of fast fashion and industries moving overseas, TS Designs has made revolutionary strides  in their business model to compete while fostering community prosperity and well-being. 

Know Your Clothing’s vision is to create a globally scalable model of regional apparel manufacturing clusters, ensuring supply chain transparency, minimizing waste, and fair worker treatment, while promoting the widespread adoption of natural materials and fibers.

To continue this work, TS Designs is launching a crowdfunding campaign to advance further research and development on scaling the use of natural dyes and fibers, and connecting local manufacturers. The goal is to raise $100,000 by the end of 2024. For more information on how to get involved as an individual, company or organization, visit knowyourclothing.org.
