HOW CAN YOU HELP? GOFUNDME
Hi, I’m Maia Willow. After years as a registered Nurse in aged care, I’ve seen the profound impact of clothing on dignity. Many residents endure ill-fitting, uncomfortable outfits, while care teams and families are stretched too thin to help. Through Our Timeless Threads, I provide sustainable, stylish clothing and host joyful pop-up shops in care homes. To grow, I urgently need funds for a delivery van and operational costs. Your donation will help restore dignity to our elders and fight fashion waste. Together, we can make a difference. Thank you for your support!

TWO CHALLENGES,
ONE SOLUTION.
We care for people and the planet. Partnering with RCYCL and your donations, we save pre-loved garments from landfill by turning old fibres into new yarn. This lets us provide comfortable, stylish clothing to aged care homes—supporting residents’ dignity and helping facilities meet Aged Care Commission standards—all through sustainable reuse.
