Soziales Engagement bei erlich textil

Social Commitment

Giving something good back

We support projects that matter to us: from women's rights in the textile industry to clean drinking water and bringing generations together. Here you can see what we did and when, with the year and the amount.

Radeln ohne Alter – erlich textil Social Day 2022
Cycling Without Age (2022)

In 2022 we introduced our "Social Day" and took part as a team in Cycling Without Age (Radeln ohne Alter), an initiative that offers senior citizens rickshaw rides through their neighbourhood. It exists in many places around the world and we warmly recommend it!

Pads for Girls – Initiative mit The Female Company
Pads for Girls (2019)

Together with The Female Company, we developed the Zora brief in 2019: for the days when you have your period. For every "get-comfy" box sold, a donation went to Pads for Girls to provide women in India with washable cloth pads. Result: around €1,000.

Drip by Drip – sauberes Trinkwasser in Bangladesch
#yearofgivingwater (2020)

COVID-19 hit the textile industry hard and deepened poverty in Bangladesh. A donation to Drip by Drip funded the installation of water filters in 2020, giving families access to clean drinking water.
