Mission Statement

Support local animal shelters, homeless shelters, women's homes, and children's centers while promoting sustainability by donating castoff linens from hotels to shelters.

Description

Linens N Love donates castoff hotel linens to to local animal shelters, women's homes, and children's centers, providing them with much-needed resources. We are a student-driven organization that fosters empathy and compassion, encouraging all student volunteers to embark on a tour of each shelter after delivering linens and engaging with shelter residents on a firsthand basis to understand why their volunteerism matters. The nonprofit has grown from two sisters to over 500 global ambassadors - and stands today as a 100% youth-driven organization. To date, the nonprofit has donated 60,000 linens to various shelters across 15 countries, including the United States, Singapore, South Korea, the United Kingdom, Ireland, India, and Sri Lanka . Linens N Love’s sustainable and innovative vision of giving blankets, sheets, and pillows a second life has saved over 5.1 million kilojoules of energy, diverted over 1.5 million kgs of carbon emissions, and conserved over 7.5 million liters of water wastage. We have received recognition and support from prominent figures and organizations such as Forbes, Kelly Clarkson, Disney, Choice Hotels International, OCBC Bank, General Motors, T-Mobile, Google, DHL, Hershey’s, Ashoka, and the WE Foundation.
