Don’t worry just sport!

The DRIP Foundation believes that all children and youth deserve equal opportunities. Everywhere and always, including at the sports club. Without social pressure, without judgment, without discrimination. In the locker room, however, the differences are often already visible. One is wearing the latest shirt from an exclusive label, the other puts on the unbranded, washed-out shirt again. Inequality that lowers the enjoyment of sport and raises the threshold.

The DRIP Foundation takes this to heart and is doing something about it. The solidarity-based, circular sportswear brand. You buy DRIP to pass it on. To your teammate or sports club in your region. Or as a parent to your own child. Because DRIP breaks down social barriers very cool too. Everyone wants to wear that! In that everyone wants to play sports!

How we work

All activities we undertake will be designed from the core values: approachable, fun, simple and meaningful. As a foundation, DRIP carries out the following activities to achieve its goal:

1. Collecting and passing on sportswear / sports materials in the Eindhoven region based on the "donate with dignity" principle;
2. Making collected sportswear directly available to athletes & teams in an accessible way, including in cooperation with sports clubs in the area;
3. Making sports experiences available for free

Collecting and passing on

Everyone with sporting children experiences how quickly they grow and thus new sportswear is often needed. Often the sportswear (shoes & clothes) that is too small is not worn out at all and can be passed on just fine. Through DRIP, you ensure that your sportswear is passed on with dignity and respect to people in and around the city who can use it. This way you not only give your clothing a second life, but you also help someone who could really use it!

When you donate your sportswear we make sure that:

1. A check is done on the status of the clothes.
2. It is clean & smells good when it is passed on.
3. Your clothing gets a second life via the right route in the right place
