Fashion Fights Poverty is driven by two principles: 1) design can change the world and 2) changing the world is everyone's responsibility. In co-founding FFP, Michael Dumlao, Sylvie Luanghy and Kadrieka Maiden wanted to build a movement that celebrated not only design, but how creativity can contribute to the global fight against poverty.
In bridging the gap between culture and politics, FFP hopes to empower consumers, designers and citizens alike to find creative ways to build sustainable, economic opportunities to fight poverty in style.
