The initiative sees Frugi commit 1% of its yearly turnover to charities. Having backed many causes across its three pillars – Hunger, Shelter and Nature – Frugi currently supports Eco-Schools and LEAF. And, since 2020, Frugi has funded the Eco-Schools Green Flag certification fees for 150 schools across England as well as training for 500 teachers to become Eco-Coordinators with Eco-Schools. The £1 million charity milestone also means that Frugi has sold over £100 million worth of GOTS certified organic clothing since the brand’s inception in 2004. 85% of Frugi’s products are made of GOTS cotton, which uses no chemicals and less water, and is traceable, ensuring that suppliers and their workers are treated fairly.The remaining 15% of products are made from old polyethylene (PET) plastic bottles that have been spun into yarn to make a durable, water-proof fabric for outerwear, accessories, and swimwear.  --- ![Sytner Group Director of HR Melvin Rogers & CEO of Ben Zara Ross talk by a red car](https://wfay6x.infiniteuploads.cloud/2022/01/DSC00448-Sytner-Group-Director- of-HR-Melvin-Rogers-and-CEO-of-Ben-Zara-Ross.jpg) Sytner Group Director of HR Melvin Rogers, and CEO of Ben Zara Ross #### Ben and Sytner Group Sytner Group is continuing its support for automotive charity, [Ben](https://ben.org.uk/), donating £100,000 to help it carry on its work.
