​Fashion Designers for Refugees Kickstarter campaigns

These kickstarter campaigns are designed to support fashion talent work with female artisans from the Swat Valley.  These campaigns help to highlight new and original designs to our miliennal supporter base.  Millennials  gain access to limited edition exclusive bags before they are made available on the open market. 

Renee Elliott, founder of Planet Organic, will be supporting these designers build their fashion brand via Beluga Bean after each campaign.

The orders these campaigns generate will be produced by female artisans in the Swat Valley.  They have an ancient tradition of artisanship there.  This is being eroded by the conflict the region recently experienced, along with climate change & industrialisation. 

​Yes, this is the same Swat Valley where Malala comes from.  Peace has finally emerged in the region.  There are 2.5 million people looking to rebuild their lives in this region.    With your support they can rebuild their lives while working with local talent that you support. 

Please Note:
These artisans will use  Build a Nest Foundation compliance for workers ensuring all products are eco & ethically made.
​We will be sharing their stories with you as well. 

One of the rewards these campaigns offer is the expereince of meeting the artisans in person and handmake your own scarf by working with them. 

We are working with Swat Valley Guild, Xperience Pakistan & Beluga Bean on this project.
