Why are we talking about 'Workers of Hope'?

Who is a Worker of Hope?

Everyone can be a Worker of Hope, by being generous, making a change and caring for those around you.
Gandhi once said: 

“You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty.”

Wearing 1C1Y and supporting a child in need with every item makes you a Worker of Hope. You just feel better knowing that your outfit has brought new light and joy to a discouraged child.

We believe in humanity, a better tomorrow and a world where we help the next generation. There is a movement of everyday heroes, Workers of Hope, who smile, encourage and stand up for what is good. We wanted to create fashion for people who want to make a difference.

Inspiring others

We got inspired by some incredible everyday heroes around us, like Johanna. She works as an art-therapist at ARTHELPS, helping children to process traumas, confusion and recover to new confidence. Have a little listen to her story and what hope means to her.

Getting excited about tomorrow 

We hope the thought, that you can be a Worker of Hope got you excited. Who in your life, needs your help? Maybe it means serving your community, calling your family, or breaking through cynicism by staying constructive.
