About Us
Our Mission
At Upcycle Society 8, we work to reduce textile waste, and promote a circular economy.
Our Team
We promote sustainability by upcycling textiles that are reusable and renew their purpose. Our commitment to sustainability drives every decision we make at Upcycle Society 8.
Our Process
Upcycle Society 8 turns rescued textiles into functional, one-of-one market bags through intentional design and handcrafting. Our process keeps materials in motion and waste out of landfills.
My Journey
This business is more than creativity or craft for me—it's my final contribution to society, the one last meaningful mark I hope to leave behind… even if it’s only the size of a grain of rice. I grew up in the sweatshops of the NYC's garment district, where I learned what fashion really costs, and the waste it leaves.
