The retailer has partnered with digital giving, selling and swapping marketplace platform Geev to host the offer. Geev launched in 2017 and, to date, has diverted almost 19,000 tonnes of preloved items to new homes across Europe.
Under the scheme, customers in the UK and France will be encouraged to list unwanted items on the free Geev app when they make a purchase from MADE.COM. Once a new home is found for the items, Made.com will donate the equivalent of 10% of the original order on its site to its charity partners – namely Groundwork, Centrepoint, Kids Out, Wonder Foundation and Akt.

Louisiana Lawmakers Commend Anti-Fossil Fuel North Face For Being A Loyal Oil And Gas Customer
Like many companies today, The North Face claims a moral high ground by politically aligning itself with leftist views.
While the California-based company would not provide 400 jackets to West Texas oil and gas developer Innovex Downhole Solutions, it is dependent on the fossil fuel industry. Nearly two-thirds of its apparel is produced from synthetic materials made possible by fossil fuels. The parkas, boots, and backpacks The North Face sells are made from products it virtue-signals against to appease the left.
The North Face, though, tells a different story when in the public eye. The company claimed it will not sell its apparel to oil and gas companies, which are supposedly “not consistent with its brand standards.” The woke capitalists say they will provide “100% responsibly-sourced apparel fabrics by 2025.”
