What We Do

We rescue high-quality fabric remnants from hotels and tailor shops—materials that would otherwise be discarded as waste—and give them new purpose. Through the skillful hands and creativity of our artisan team, these forgotten materials become unique, handcrafted products including bags, accessories, and decorative items.

Who We Serve

Our program directly benefits at-risk communities across Central Vietnam, with particular focus on:

People with disabilities seeking dignified employment
Women with unstable income or limited job opportunities
Youth learning entrepreneurial and vocational skills
Non-disabled tailors looking to supplement their income

Our Upcycling Initiatives

"Individual Action, Collective Impact: Engaging International Communities"

We believe change starts with small actions each person can take. Through partnerships with international education programs, we welcome students from around the world to learn about sustainable production and consumption while taking concrete action.

Participants engage through documentaries, workshops, and hands-on activities—making usable products from surplus fabric, collecting waste from beaches and streets, and connecting with our artisan team. These experiences combine environmental education with meaningful cross-cultural exchange, inspiring young people to become sustainability advocates in their own communities.

Corporate Partnerships: Sustainability Journey

We partner with businesses to provide team-building experiences that shift mindsets about waste and sustainability. Through our "Sustainability Journey" program, corporate teams learn that sustainable consumption means not creating waste in the first place—and that when we change our mindset, "trash" becomes resources.

Working alongside our upcycling artisans, corporate participants experience firsthand how fabric waste from hotels transforms into beautiful, useful products. They create items that are donated to disadvantaged children, connecting environmental action with social impact. These partnerships help businesses integrate sustainability into their corporate culture while supporting our artisan team.

The Closed Circle: Connecting Stakeholders for Sustainable Development

Our signature model demonstrates the power of circular economy principles:

Step 1: We collect used, high-quality fabrics from luxury resorts in Da Nang and surrounding areas.
Step 2: We guide international guests and community members in transforming these materials into upcycled products through cutting, sewing, and decorating workshops—creating experiential learning about environmental protection and sustainable development.
Step 3: We donate finished products to students at disability education centers and other marginalized communities.

This closed-loop system addresses waste, creates livelihoods, provides education, and supports vulnerable communities—all while bringing together hotels, international visitors, our artisan team, and disability organizations in a model of true collaboration.

Our Impact

Environmental Protection – We divert hundreds of kilograms of fabric waste from landfills and waterways each year, reducing pollution and promoting circular economy practices.
Economic Empowerment – We provide stable income and develop marketable skills for people with disabilities and marginalized workers. Our team members earn fair wages while building professional experience and confidence.
Community Education – We raise awareness about fast fashion's environmental impact and inspire sustainable consumption habits throughout Central Vietnam and beyond.
Skills Development – We train youth and team members in upcycling techniques, business skills, and environmental stewardship, empowering them to become change agents in their own communities.
Building Connection – We bring people and resources together, creating networks of support that strengthen community bonds and advance collective sustainability goals.
