With EYD you invest not only in socially and environmentally responsible fashion, but mainly in the people who make it for you. Because with us, the focus is on the "dressmakers", meaning the seamstresses, and not on the products or the profit.
Exploitation, human trafficking, modern slavery or stigmatization - oppression is everywhere and especially women are affected by it. We want to change that! That's why we provide jobs for women with a traumatic past in a loving and supportive environment and thus hope and new opportunities for their future. Of course, we don't do this alone, but together with wonderful production partners who employ and care for affected women. They are much more than business partners for us, they are friends and like-minded people in the fight for social justice.
Injustice and exploitation exist everywhere, regardless of how rich or poor a country is. And as long as this is the case, there is a need for projects like EYD, which actively stand up for those affected. Therefore, we want to grow continuously to start, initiate or support even more empowerment and freedom projects! Help us and become part of the movement: EMPOWER YOUR DRESSMAKER!
