CAT Charity Project
At KARAKU, we support rescue cats through our CAT COLLECTION—a collection that puts our love for cats into every garment.
For every eligible cat-themed item you purchase, we donate $1 from the sale to Neco Republic.
Each piece you choose helps care for rescue cats and brings them one step closer to finding a new family.
Wear. Support. Connect.
A kinder future for cats, one garment at a time.
Clothing Donation Project
Clothing that would otherwise be discarded is put to use through Furukuru, a program run by the certified nonprofit organization Bridge Asia Japan (BAJ), to support people facing poverty in Myanmar and Vietnam.
By reducing clothing waste, we also help make better use of our limited resources.
