Mission Statement
Dedicated to empowering and inspiring plus-size and big and tall individuals to be their best selves. We believe that social media should not be a breeding ground for hate and low self-esteem. Our mission is to address body obstacles and promote body-positive advocacy for all. Through annual fashion shows, model boot camps, empowerment photo shoots, mentoring programs, and showcasing designers, boutique owners and stylist that design and curate plus-size fashion. We aim to develop a strong alliance of empowerment to teens and adults who can carry our mission forward to influence others in our community.
Description
The Fashionable And Thick Foundation’s vision is to rid the world of the negative connotations because of one’s size. We promote esteem for all plus size individuals, recognizing that to do so we must seek to educate the powers that oppress, marginalize, make invisible, disenfranchise, harass, bully, intimidate, harm, abuse, and/or discriminate against plus size individuals. We also nurture and develop a safe, vital, healthy, and evolving community for all plus size individuals, founded on integrity and collaboration while recognizing and valuing differences and seeking partnerships. Embracing the full spectrum of plus size experiences, viewpoints, and contributions, celebrating the different nuances and diversity created in the intersections of age, ethnicity, culture, race, disability, gender, religion, sexual orientation or socioeconomic status. The Fashionable And Thick Foundation provides services to people without discrimination or preference based on size, age, ethnicity, culture, race, disability, gender, religion, sexual orientation, or socioeconomic status.
