Help us bring comfort
and confidence to kids across the U.S.

In a world where too few families can afford fresh undies, we’re on a mission to make a big deal out of small pairs. By working to ensure that all children have access to the daily dignity of clean underwear, you help promote the conditions for success every kid deserves—from basic hygiene and better school attendance to brighter outlooks about themselves and the world around them. Thank you.

host a virtual undies drive

Start your own Undies drive - virtually!

Host a virtual undies drive by inviting your group’s members, friends and family from all over to click a button and send some undies for a child in need.

To help you promote your drive, we’ll equip you with UFE-branded templates and ideas for social posts to spread the digital word far and wide. Virtual drives are great for birthday parties, bar/bat Mitzvah projects, corporate team building . . . what can you celebrate with undies?

Group Volunteers

Group volunteering is for parties of 15 or more. If your group has fewer than 15, we’d be delighted to have you sign up for individual volunteer slots.

Undies for Entry: 10 pairs per person

We ask that volunteer groups donate 10 pairs of new underwear per participant. Your group can do this a few ways:

OPTIONS: Day-of-the-Packing

  • Ask each participant to bring 10 pair of new, in-package girl’s or boy’s underwear to the packing. (See below for size recommendations.)
  • Make a monetary donation at our Undies HQ using our credit card Dip Jar. (It’s easy. Promise.)

Options: Before-the-Packing

  • Host an Undies Drive before the packing. (Don’t worry, we’ll walk you through it.)
  • Purchase undies online from our UFE Amazon Wishlist. (They may not end up being the same pair you pack, but they’ll all head somewhere worthy!).
  • Make a monetary donation online.

We distribute all sizes of children’s underwear, but at this time we are in greatest need of larger sizes (girl’s sizes 10–16, boy’s sizes M–XL). Thank you!
