THE CLEAN CLOTHES CAMPAIGN
70% of the world do not have access to an electric washing machine. Instead, women and children take on the burden of this domestic labour for many hours day after day. You can help to change this!
The Washing Machine Project (TWMP) have created a manual washing machine called Divya, which is an innovative, sustainable and humanitarian solution to this issue. The Divya is an off-the-grid washer-dryer machine, that can help save up to 50% of water and 75% of the time compared to handwashing clothes.
The REACH NETWORK have formed a partnership with the TWMP through the Clean Clothes Campaign to:
SUPPORT: REACH’s strategy to Give Back to good causes
VOLUNTEERING: Utilise engineering and other skills of JLR employees
PROMOTION: Spreading the word about TWMP internally in JLR
FUNDRAISING: Encourage JLR employees to support fundraising activities
PLEASE NOTE:
We will be fundraising from April 2023 to March 2024 through various activities and have a set a preliminary goal of 10K, which we hope to increase dependent on support.
