For People

2. About Us
— Planet Aid is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization that collects
and recycles used clothes and shoes and supports
international development projects, helping to save resources
and lessen environmental impacts by reducing waste. Planet
Aid supports community-based projects that improve health,
increase income, aid vulnerable children, train teachers, and
enhance the overall quality of life for people.
— We started Planet Aid back in 1997 in the Boston area. The
idea was to do something good for the planet and the poor.
With only a few drop-off boxes and a rented storage unit, we
started collecting clothes and shoes. It wasn't long before our
small rented space began to overflow. Though we were
growing fast, the aim remained the same: expand global
environmental sustainability and mobilize resources to end
poverty.

3. MISSION
Planet Aid’s mission is to inform, mobilize, and inspire individuals and
communities to work together to bring about worldwide
environmental and social progress. Planet Aid recognizes that good
stewardship is essential for the well-being of current and future
generations. The projects we support thus aim to protect the
environment, reduce waste, and increase the efficient use of vital
resources. We work to strengthen and organize communities, reduce
poverty and promote small enterprise development, support
sustainable local food production, improve access to training and
quality education, and increase health awareness and encourage
healthy lifestyles, We embrace the principles of equality and self-determination.
Disadvantaged populations are our priority, and we
seek to empower them to create lasting positive change.
