Project snapshot
Our goal is to provide a platform for individuals of all ages and backgrounds to build confidence and connect through fashion. The workshop will empower youth and seniors alike, allowing them to express their unique identities. By fostering intergenerational relationships, we aim to strengthen community bonds and celebrate the diverse culture of the Bronx. Sustainability is a key focus of our project. We will establish partnerships with local businesses, fashion institutions, and community organizations to secure ongoing funding and support. Additionally, we will offer fee-based workshops and classes to generate revenue and cover operational costs. A volunteer network comprised of program alumni and community members will be created to support future iterations of the Fashion Workshop. Integrating the project into existing community programs will ensure its longevity.
