Our Mission

philanthropic capitalism. An entire business model that inspires. We buy garments from Goodwill, an organization that gives back to the communities in America and then give them a new life for people with a unique design sense. For every garment purchased from Alter clothing, we donate a portion of proceed to a female sewing or tailoring entrepreneur in S. America, Africa or SE Asia.


Women are still not given the education and opportunities to succeed in life in other countries. They are still struggling to support families and to create sustainable businesses in their craft.


Participating entrepreneurs like Lydia from Guatemala (47 years old, 4 kids/married) will be able to build their businesses with Alter customers help. philanthropic capitalism. We're like Toms, but for the rest of the body.
