Started in June 2011, World Fashion 4 Development (WF4D) is a non-profit program that utilizes the power of global fashion industry to promote education and increase awareness and funding for job creation in countries with poor economic development structures.

The program raises funds for scholarships to train individuals in fashion and thereby empower their communities to build a sustainable future.
