On International Women\u2019s Day<\/strong>, I wanted to take a moment to recognize all the women who have helped bring Les Super Recycleurs to life for nearly 10 years.<\/p> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

Les Super Recycleurs began with an idea started by a woman\u2026 me. But very quickly, I realized that this project no longer truly belonged to me. It became a movement carried by a community\u2014and women make up a significant portion of that community. <\/p>

Through the years of clothing drives, I have had the privilege of meeting hundreds of dedicated teachers, educators and school directors. In schools and childcare centres, they are often the ones who take the time to organize the drives, talk about them with students and share important values: respect for resources, solidarity and responsibility toward our planet. <\/p>

I would also like to thank all the women in the families who participate in the Super Recycleurs clothing drives. The moms, grandmothers and aunts\u2026 they are the ones who take the time to sort through closets with the children, prepare the donation bundles and explain why we donate clothes instead of throwing them away. <\/p>

These simple moments at home often become real life lessons. You are teaching the next generation a different way of consuming: to act, to buy less, to buy better, and to care for what we already have. <\/p> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n

For the past 10 years, Les Super Recycleurs have allowed me not only to support schools and childcare centres, but also to meet extraordinary women in our communities. Women who get involved, who raise awareness and who contribute, each in their way, to building a more responsible future. <\/p>

Today, on International Women\u2019s Day, I just want to say thank you.<\/p>

Thank you for believing in the project.
Thank you for participating in the collections.
Thank you for teaching children that a piece of clothing can have many lives.<\/p>

Les Super Recycleurs exist thanks to you.<\/p>
