About the Shop
Campus Thrift was born at the intersection of style, sustainability and affordability. It provides an affordable shopping experience for college and university students through buying & selling trendy secondhand clothing for young adults that promotes up-cycling and sustainable lifestyles through clothing and accessories.
How It Began...
The Problem.
The average North American throws away one garbage truck load of clothes in landfills or burned every second in the U.S. An estimated $500 billion is lost annually because of clothing that’s hardly worn or not recycled.
Our Solution.
We providing a solution that promotes the 3 R's: Reduce, Reuse, Recycle. We sell gently used clothes for women in their teens and twenties. We have all the name brands and styles you love at up to 70% less than regular retail prices.
Our Impact.
Second-hand shopping displaced nearly 1 BILLION new clothing purchases in 2021 that normally would have been bought new. This proves that the most sustainable piece of clothing is one that already exists.
About Founder
Vuyile began reselling clothes in 2017 as a hobby because shopping secondhand not only saved her money, but it helped slow down the negative impacts of fast fashion. What started as a side hustle became a full-time job in 2022 and she is daily chasing her dream of building a purpose-driven company, with GTA youth in mind.
