Thank you, Ms. Contreras, for looking into Threads for Thought. I recently purchased two of their shirts on sale at Whole Foods in Boulder, CO. I was thrilled to find such nice, organic cotton shirts with NRDC endorsement. Just this morning, as I was putting on one of them, I noticed the “Made in Pakistan” label and became concerned. After some “Googling” I came across your blog post. I’m glad to know that someone else is thinking about global impact issues that go beyond materials to worker conditions. Thank you for researching Threads for Thought and posting your findings. I agree that it does sound like they’re doing what they can to use sustainable products and protect against human trafficking. This is good news.
