Neubodi’s Bra Drive isn’t your ordinary donation campaign. It's a feel-good, do-good movement that combines social impact with eco-friendliness. The drive, part of Neubodi’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), collects pre-loved bras from all around and either donates or recycles them. Think of it as giving your old bras a second chance to make someone else feel supported and confident!

Why Neubodi Started the Bra Drive Initiative?

Let’s be real—we all have those bras. You know the ones—sitting in the back of your drawer, neglected and unloved. Rather than sending them to a landfill (where they'll take ages to break down), why not let them help women who truly need them? Many women in underdeveloped countries don’t have access to proper intimate wear, which can affect their comfort, confidence, and even health. Your gently used bra can go a long way in changing that.

And it doesn’t stop there! The Bra Drive also tackles textile waste, offering an eco-friendly way to recycle bras that are no longer wearable. It’s like hitting two birds with one bra—empowering women and protecting the planet.

A Part of Neubodi's Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)

At the core of Neubodi’s CSR is the belief that businesses have a responsibility to give back to society. Through the Bra Drive, Neubodi addresses two main issues: providing for women who lack access to intimate wear and reducing textile waste. This annual campaign aligns with the company's larger mission of creating a positive impact on society while educating consumers about sustainable practices.

Helping Women in Need

Every bra collected is either donated or recycled, depending on its condition. Usable bras are cleaned and sent to women in underdeveloped regions across Malaysia and other countries such as Thailand, Indonesia, Nepal, Cambodia & Africa where access to proper intimate wear is a luxury. . Many women in these communities lack access to quality intimate wear, which is crucial for both comfort and health. Neubodi’s Bra Drive helps bridge that gap by providing these essentials, ensuring that women who otherwise wouldn’t have access to proper bras can feel supported and confident.

Recycling and Reducing Textile Waste

Bras may be small, but they’re mighty when it comes to creating waste! The average bra is made from a mix of materials, including synthetics that take decades to decompose. That’s why Neubodi’s Bra Drive is so important—it keeps bras out of landfills and gives them a new lease on life, either through donation or recycling.

But here’s where it gets cool—bras that can’t be donated are broken down and recycled into biofuel pellets, helping reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 23%. Yes, your old bras can literally help save the planet!

Providing a Solution for Women to Discard Their Old Bras

Raise your hand if you’ve ever wondered what to do with your old bras. Many donation centers won’t accept intimate wear, so they just sit there... waiting. Neubodi offers an easy solution: drop-off points where customers can leave their old bras, knowing they’ll either be repurposed or recycled responsibly. This gives women an accessible and impactful way to declutter their wardrobe without harming the environment.

Educating the Public About Textile Recycling

One of the best parts of the Bra Drive? It’s not just about collecting bras—it’s about raising awareness about the importance of textile recycling. Neubodi is on a mission to raise awareness about the massive environmental impact of textile waste and how small actions, like recycling your bras, can make a huge difference.

That’s Not All…

• Community Building: The Bra Drive is a way for women to come together for a common cause. It fosters a sense of community as customers share their stories and experiences while donating their bras.
• Convenient Recycling Solution: Many textiles, especially bras, don’t have straightforward recycling solutions. The Bra Drive provides an easy, convenient way for women to recycle their bras, reducing the hassle and contributing to a good cause.
• Partnerships with Local Charities: The collected bras are often distributed through partnerships with local charities, furthering the reach of this initiative. These partnerships ensure that the bras go directly to women in need, whether they are survivors of abuse, refugees, or those in low-income communities.

Neubodi’s Bra Drive represents a unique blend of social responsibility and environmental sustainability. By donating your old bras, you’re not only helping women in need but also contributing to a greener planet by reducing textile waste. It's an initiative that empowers women, reduces environmental harm, and educates the public on the importance of recycling. The Bra Drive is a win-win for everyone involved—so next time you're cleaning out your closet, consider dropping off your old bras at Neubodi and making a positive difference!
