Cloth Bank

By: Bindu Doddahatti 
Cloth Bank is an organized and sustainable campaign raised to make your materials reach the victims immediately at the time of need. Every year millions of people suffer from disastrous phenomenon like flood, landslide, earth quake, heavy storms, large snowfall and other natural calamities and poverty as well, which throw out them from basic needs for living- cloth along with food and shelter wherein unclothing becomes a sensitive factor for widespread epidemics of diseases, snake-bite, and pneumonia on children, various health hazards and deaths.
 
Many efforts are laid down to fight against these deficiencies at small and large level by various organizations. Many relief campaigns are launched. It takes a long time to start, run and end the relief campaign and distribute the materials to the affected ones. So, the concept of Cloth Bank has been raised as a sustainable initiative to work on the issue of clothing.

Cloth Bank is an organized, unregistered and sustainable campaign raised to make your materials reach the victims immediately at the time of need. It has no any negative impacts on environment. Healthy (unaffected by diseases) clothes from pants to caps, sweaters, jackets, shirts, t-shirts, and other types will be collected at the bank.
