Why we're donating 100% of Profits this quarter to Children's Ground
19/07/2022
Worn For Good exists to provide conscious shoppers with high quality clothing that is already in existence, to advocate for responsible fashion and for a circular economy, and to build a community of like-minded individuals who seek creative ways to positively impact the world.
More than this, however, is our inherent commitment to support projects and charities that are generating immense positive change, both environmentally and socially. With the help of the generous leading Australian brands we partner with, we donate 100% of our profits to a cause we care about each quarter.
We’re excited to announce that for this quarter, 100% of the profits from our next three collections will be donated to Children’s Ground.
What is Children’s Ground?
Led by First Nations communities, Children’s Ground is a First Nations organisation that is helping to create different futures for children - futures filled with possibility, opportunity, promise, hope and justice.
Children’s Ground walks alongside First Nations communities in the Northern Territory, delivering services across learning, health, economic development and community wellbeing, combining the expertise of First Nations knowledge systems with international leading practice.
Children’s Ground vision is for a future where children, families and communities live free from economic poverty, with dignity and justice. In this future, First Nations people can achieve their goals, have a strong connection to their culture, and have agency over their future – socially, culturally, politically and economically. Children’s Ground wants Australia to know and celebrate both the history and future of First Nations people.
Children’s Ground is making an impact:
Designed, governed and delivered by First Nations people, Children’s Ground monitors and evaluates the impact and outcomes of their approach with a comprehensive Research & Evaluation Framework.
Supported by ABS Census Data, Children’s Ground was associated with a huge rise in early childhood engagement in Kakadu. Children’s Ground’s 2019 Evaluation Report covered the period of 2014-2016 in Kakadu West Arnhem, and included the following key findings:
100% of children engaged with their first language, and alongside their families participated in cultural learning;
86% of families reported an improvement in their children speaking their first language; and
100% of children who undertook Children’s Ground’s formal learning demonstrated increased nutritional intake, and both health behaviours and knowledge.
Through tracked research, evaluation, experience and action, Children’s Ground is positively impacting the lives of children in communities where hardship and injustice are most prominent.
