Thread Up Oxford
@threadupoxford.bsky.social
We are a sustainability focused 501c3 non-profit organization that works to prevent textile waste in our Oxford, Ohio community through a combination of education and outreach, redistribution, and facilitating recycling. Info@threadupoxford.org
Give your local #nonprofits some love. If you’re able to buy them something on their wishlist or office supplies, cleaning supplies, etc. you will really be making a difference. This folding dump table is $250 and helps us so much with distribution or Freejects. We were just donated two.

This is a label from the brand RSQ by Tilly’s. Impressed by this whole label and if even a small percentage of wearers treat this garment more sustainably, that’s a win. #textilesustainability #textileconservation #reducereuserecycle

If everyone that supports our mission of local textile #circulareconomy gave $5, Thread Up Oxford would receive thousands of dollars this #GivingTuesday We prevent ALL material we receive from the landfill or overseas, at least until it leaves our hands into someone else's. givebutter.com/O2dOhR

#Freejects are an important way we redistribute textile material back out into the community. Hundreds of pounds a month of textile items with flaws/stains/holes that are still usable in some way are outside our donation center whenever we are open for anyone in the community to grab for any reason.

A true community project, though put together and installed by #Crochet Duck Mafia. This is outside our Uptown Threads secondhand store in Uptown Oxford, Ohio. #Zerocost yarn scraps and donated crocheted items turned into an amazing #yarnbomb #yarnbombing #oxfordohio #sustainabledecorations

One critical part of our #circulareconomy #textileconservation #zerowaste mission is to keep everything out of the landfill and to keep things from going overseas, like to #ghana, to mess with their environment and native clothing and textile industries. Giving away “Freejects” is one way we do so.

The cultural roots of fast fashion go back further than you think.
