Social Impact Through Collaboration
We strive to:
1. To raise funds for charities and existing not-for-profit organizations through fashion industry activities.
2. To further the interests of the New York fashion industry by connecting them with projects that align with their corporate social responsibility initiatives.
3. To encourage and support recent fashion design graduates to participate in projects with social impact by increasing the availability and quality of fellowships and grant.
We make sure the things we do are genuine and in line with the approaches we believe in.
We seek to work with others, wherever possible, not just because it’s more fun, but because deep-seated change requires networks, allies and fresh thinking with others.
We genuinely seek to co-create a better world with other partners, preferring relationships rather than transactions.
We approach our work with the dignity, artfulness and fun it deserves, putting people at the centre of design, but always with the high energy needed to bring forth ideas to motivate and inspire others to create change.
We operate as whole beings. We don’t separate between formal and informal, hierarchic and functional, charity and business and we definitely don’t leave ours.
