Mel C is giving several pieces from her personal wardrobe a new purpose as part of the eighth annual Uber x Australian Red Cross Clothing Drive.
As part of the campaign, the Spice Girls star is donating three items from her archive, including a green-and-yellow tracksuit, a gray sequin performance suit, and a little black Gucci dress. The clothing will be sold through Australian Red Cross Shops, with proceeds helping support humanitarian programs.
The clothing drive will also invite Australians to donate clean, good-quality pre-owned items. On October 17, residents in Adelaide, Brisbane, Canberra, Melbourne, Perth, and Sydney can arrange free clothing pickups through Uber and Uber Eats.
Mel C said she likes the idea of meaningful clothes finding a second life and hopes the campaign encourages people to check their own wardrobes for items they no longer wear.
Last year’s drive collected nearly 125,000 kilograms of pre-owned clothing, highlighting the scale of public participation in the annual donation effort.
