Yes, it’s true - there’s a national day dedicated to underwear!
While National Underwear Day was created to celebrate underwear and the freedom of self-expression that comes with wearing it, we are using it as a day to not only celebrate and be grateful for underwear--but also to bring awareness that not everyone has access to it.
Our mission is to provide children with access to new underwear for each day of the week. 1 in 3 kids in MA experience clothing insecurity, and underwear insecurity is even worse because you cannot donate used underwear--it needs to be new for hygienic and lawful purposes. Therefore, underwear is one of the most needed but least donated items to shelters and youth-focused organizations. Cocotree Kids was created to fill this need and in just 3 years has distributed over 215,000 pairs of underwear to 30,000 kids across the state!
Our goal to celebrate this fun holiday is to raise $5,000, which will provide over 1,400 kids with 10,000 pairs of underwear. Please help us spread the word--and Happy Undies Day!
Donate today to help us reach our goal:
