Donate:

The LEAPS Conference is made possible in large part due to volunteered time from members of the Make Fashion Clean (MFC) team. While we are committed to making the event free and publicly available, we encourage participants - especially those who generate a lot of textile waste - to consider donating to the #MFCTextileWasteCampaign that we will be launching on Monday, April 29. All proceeds directly support the MFC-MFI Foundation Upcycling Partnership, an initiative of artisans who are upcycling textile waste in Ghana. Learn more and donate.

Conference Recording:

We plan to make recordings of the LEAPS 2024 Textile Waste Conference available within 2-4 weeks after the conference, once we have time to edit the captions. Visit this page or the conference website to view these recordings.
