TRAID raises funds to fight global poverty and injustice through its clothes recycling, charity retail and environmental activities in the UK. We have raised over £3,000,000 to date. The majority of TRAID funding supports projects improving the lives, environment and wages of people working in the global textile supply chain.  If you have any questions about TRAID's international development work or funding process, please contact Angela Russ by email.
