5. Donate your unwanted denim pieces for a good cause
Where: The Gardens Mall
A little help goes a long way so, if you have any unwanted denim pieces lying around, drop them off at the South Palm (Ground Floor) of The Gardens Mall. The collected items will then be donated to the single mothers of Suri, a social enterprise that employs single mothers from low-income communities. The women will transform the material into new clothes and other household items. That’s helping two causes: the women in need and the environment.
