Do you know where your kids’ clothes are made? or who made them?


After the May, 2013 garment factory collapse in Bangladesh that killed more than 1100 workers, many US companies signed onto “The Accord on Fire and Building Safety,” but NOT the Children’s Place, the Gap, Wal-Mart, JC Penney, Macy’s, Sears/Kmart, Target, Kohl’s, Carter’s, Nordstrom’s, AEO, Foot Locker, more. Your voice about the continuing dangerous conditions and their irresponsible corporate behavior can be heard by how you use your wallet.
