nurturing the planet &
the next generation
$17,750+ donated to support childhood literacy
how we nurture the next generation.
There are children all across the country who cannot read the words on this very page. Education is at the foundation of everything we do and that is why with each littlebag purchased, new, quality books are placed in the hands of a child who otherwise would not have access to literacy tools. 15% of the proceeds of each littlebag nurtures the minds (and now bodies) of children in need.

3600+ lbs of fabric rescued.
how we nurture the planet.
Our journey towards zero waste starts with a piece of reclaimed fabric and turning it into something beautiful and functional.
quick facts.
-
Over 15 million tons of textiles are thrown into a landfill each year in the USA. This number keeps increasing.
-
In 2014, 16 million+ tons of textiles were wasted with 10.4 tons ending up in a landfill.
​
together we can decrease this number.
Interior designer remnants, discontinued prints, and ends of bolts are all major disruptors on our planet when thrown away.
When you purchase a littlebag, you are saving fabric from entering a landfill.
