Hanesbrands will donate 12,500 pairs of pantyhose to Sunshine and Shores and will donate 37,500 pairs to San Francisco-based Matter of Trust, an ecological charity that collects hair and pantyhose to make booms and oil-absorbing mats.
“We take average length pantyhose and stuff them as tight as we can with hair,” Golden said. “We tie the hose together end to end and cover them with mesh. The texture and structure of hair traps the oil. You put the booms in the water to absorb the oil and then squeegee the oil out of them in an oil barge to recycle the oil. The booms can be used a hundred times over. This is a proven and efficient way to protect our communities.”
