Who we are and the impact we have:
We Are A Social Enterprise For Women Powered by Women.
Cleaning up the oceans and empowering women entrepreneurs around the world, since 2010.
The world’s only completely circular, not-for-profit swim and active wear brand.
As a registered CIC we transform ocean waste into beautiful Gym To Swim clothing whilst donating 100% of our profit into micro loans for women entrepreneurs globally.
So far we have helped over 1200 women and their families to find a route out of poverty with the help of you, our Impact Women.
Social – Empowering Women.
Women in developing countries are the most disadvantaged without financial services for females. Gender inequality promotes poverty: 60% of chronically hungry people are women & girls. According to the United Nations, when women are able to gain incomes, money is more likely to be spent on nutrition, housing and education, consequently, children and communities thrive.
By investing 100% of our profits in business loans for women, financial independence is allowed, leading women and their families to a brighter future.
We collaborate with LendwithCare.org to provide loans and business training to female entrepreneurs, enabling them to break generational cycles of poverty and so far we have invested in over 1000 women and their families. All our garments are named after the inspiring women we support and all their incredible stories that are shared on our blog. Every time we make a sale, our customer creates positive impact for another woman- both become ‘Impact Women’.
