An Overview: Who We Are
Project Ropa, a Los Angeles-based non-profit and certified social enterprise, is paving the way towards a more compassionate, sustainable world. At its core, Project Ropa is a mobile clothing closet delivering premium, hand-selected apparel and shoes to people in need. We work with businesses, individuals and other nonprofits, to give a second life to items originally destined for landfills. In doing so, Project Ropa empowers lives, providing individuals with hygiene essentials and high-quality clothing and shoes that can open doors to future opportunities.
Our Approach: The Power of Love
Project Ropa's approach to serving our clients is deeply rooted in the concept of the intrinsic value and unlimited potential of their lives. Instead of seeing people as problems to be solved, Project Ropa views each individual as a person with unique aspirations and contributions. Many of the individuals served by Project Ropa are working to secure employment, improve their health, and maintain stable housing. Project Ropa is there to support them at every step of their journey.
Clean clothes may seem like a small thing to those who have access to them every day. But, to someone on the streets or struggling to make ends meet, a new outfit can restore dignity, rekindle optimism, and fuel a sense of opportunity as well as reduce the risk of transmissible diseases. These basics that many of us take for granted can help transform lives and open doors to a better live.
Each client is welcomed to shop from our mobile clothing closet and offered one-to-one service. Project Ropa's team members work diligently to help clients find clothing they'll be proud to wear – clean, stylish, and hand-picked. This level of personalized care may require time and attention, but it is where the real impact happens. It's care that restores hope, and our clients deeply appreciate it.
Our Impact: Restoring Dignity and Reducing Waste
Project Ropa's operations are multifaceted, addressing both social and environmental challenges. The organization's work extends beyond distributing clothing to those in need; it also involves reducing waste and creating job opportunities for those facing barriers to employment.
