Spring into Undies is Underway!

"Spring into Undies" is being run to raise money to purchase new underwear for those struggling during these challenging times.

The Undies Project is running an online campaign, “Spring into Undies” to raise money to purchase new underwear for those struggling during these challenging times.

The “Spring into Undies” campaign platform showcases a short video compilation from Little Pub, Sophia’s, Aux Délices, Pinky, Sushi Soba and Shreve, Crump and Low - just a few of the many local businesses that have unfailingly supported The Undies Project over the years. There is also a mini silent auction running from March 1st – 14th. The goal of the campaign is to raise $10,000.

The mission of The Undies Project is to provide new underwear to men, women and children in need to improve their lives.

Underwear is the most under-donated, yet most needed, item of clothing. No one should be deprived of the simple, daily necessity of clean underwear that many of us take for granted.

Hygiene and physical comfort are only a part of this basic human need. New, clean underwear also provides dignity and self-esteem. For many, underwear is a necessity, not a luxury.
