Shenaz Treasurywala Instagram – WE SHOULD THINK ABOUT JEANS BEYOND HOW OUR BUMS LOOK IN IT!
Nirvaan was 13 when he read a United Nations article about how it consumes 100 days of drinkable water to recycle 1 pair of jeans!
It made him sad
BUT then he had an idea to help the homeless & our home, earth!
He has collected over 12,000 pairs of jeans & converted them to make sleeping bags for the homeless.
Why denim?
it gets super suffocating in this heat?
but It has insulating properties
it’s very strong and never gets old.
To make 1 sleeping bag, he needs seven used pair of jeans.
Who’s the dream team?
Well, besides his mom (because moms are always the best team, right?), there are 8 badass rural women to help stitch up these life-saving bags.
Over 2000 HOMELESS people have HAD THE SLEEP EVERY human deserves, all because of Nirmaan!
I feel this boy deserves a warm hug for it!
But wait! Upcycle your old jeans 👖 and get sustainable
We can help too, donate your jeans to him and only for rs 800
make a sturdy sleeping bag for a homeless person.
