Unemployed mothers (exclusively) join the Clothing Bank two-year training programme and very quickly start their small business by trading (mainly in the informal sector) in the clothing they buy from The Clothing Bank at discounted prices. They approach the development of the women holistically as they believe that if you have a healthy woman, with a healthy mind and a healthy family - she will run a healthy business. There is an extensive support system that includes coaching, mentoring and counselling. The objective is that each woman should earn at least R4 000 per month. They currently run from 5 branches in Cape Town, Johannesburg, Durban, East London and Paarl.
