Program Overview
Join a transformative volunteer program in Greece and help combat the environmental and social challenges of the fashion industry. Working alongside local non‑profits, you'll contribute to the production of ethically made fashion from sustainable materials, while promoting eco‑friendly and socially responsible practices.

Greece, like many European countries, hosts numerous fast fashion companies whose operations often contribute to pollution and exploitation, particularly in developing nations where garment production is outsourced. As a volunteer, you'll actively support efforts to create a more sustainable fashion industry by promoting ethical production and consumption.

Upcycling Focus
A key focus of the program is upcycling fashion, where you'll transform used garments into new, stylish items, reducing waste and giving clothing a second life. You will also assist in providing ethical employment opportunities for refugees and survivors of human trafficking, helping to foster social inclusion and support vulnerable populations.
