SHOP, DONATE, IMPACT: TIMES SQUARE CENTER SUPPORTS THRIFT FOR GOOD’S RAMADAN CAMPAIGN

Times Square Center continues to strengthen its commitment to sustainability and community impact through its support of Thrift for Good, a purpose-driven thrift store that gives preloved items a second life while supporting charitable causes.

The store offers a wide selection of high-quality, predominantly branded clothing, shoes, bags, accessories and books at affordable prices ranging from AED 5–30, making sustainable fashion accessible to all. Importantly, 100% of profits are donated to this cause, helping to protect, educate and support children in need around the world.

Beyond retail, Thrift for Good provides a practical zero-waste solution for unwanted clothing by accepting donations of any condition through convenient in-store drop-offs and complimentary home collections. Its monthly “Mend for Good” initiative brings volunteers together to repair and refresh donated items, further reducing textile waste and promoting conscious consumerism.

This Ramadan, Thrift for Good is calling on the community to support vulnerable orphans in Tanzania, many of whom have been affected by HIV. The campaign aims to fund the construction of secure boundary fencing, build a safe and functional kitchen, and provide ongoing educational support for 35 children to help them remain in school and build a brighter future.

Nancy Ozbek, General Manager of Times Square Center, said: “Our partnership with Thrift for Good reflects our commitment to creating meaningful experiences that combine sustainability, community engagement and social responsibility. It offers our visitors the opportunity to shop consciously, declutter responsibly and contribute to impactful causes, particularly during the spirit of giving in Ramadan.”
