In a collaboration of sustainability and support, COS stores across New Zealand are open to collect donations for OutLine, a national service that helps LGBTIQ+ New Zealanders access support.
In addition, COS will give a Pride special edition repurposed cotton tote bag for each donation of $30+, while stocks last. A way to give new life to leftover fabric, the Pride limited edition tote is made from excess cotton unused by other designs. It’s durable, designed to last and 100% recyclable.
OutLine provide a nationwide, free and confidential 0800 support line for people who want to speak to a trained volunteer from the rainbow community. They also provide face-to-face specialist rainbow counselling and an Auckland based trans and non-binary peer support service.
Donations raised will be used to subsidise OutLine’s rainbow specialist counselling sessions for those who require financial assistance and provide training and regular supervision for volunteer call takers.
