• We believe fashion design unites and empowers. In Dzaleka refugee camp, we create apparel to connect people, honor their stories, and build a sense of community.

    • Fashion design can be a powerful catalyst for social change, especially among refugee youth. By engaging in fashion design, refugee youth can express their identities, cultures, and stories, fostering a sense of belonging and empowerment.

    • By providing free training, we uplift the community, and by equipping individuals with tools after the training, we empower them to sustain themselves and their families.
