Transforming Fashion into Impact

Fashion Impact Foundation is a registered charity turning the energy of fashion, business and events into real‑world support for children, young people and families across England and Wales.

Our vision is simple yet powerful: to bring hope, help, and happiness to individuals who need it most. But we can't do it alone. With your support, we can create brighter futures for children, empower families and inspire resilience and joy for generations to come.

Your donation to the Fashion Impact Foundation goes directly into charities that make a real, measurable impact, from providing essential resources to underserved communities to funding educational opportunities that open doors for tomorrow's leaders.

Who we are

Fashion Impact Foundation (CIO, charity number 1212393) makes grants to support children, young people and other people in need, especially where disability, poverty or disadvantage create barriers to a safe, healthy and fulfilling life.

We raise funds through partnerships with forward-thinking businesses, high-profile events and individual supporters, then direct that money to front-line charities and community projects that are changing lives on the ground.

Born from the success of FB Fashion Ball – the business, fashion and lifestyle awards gala hosted in cities including Leeds, Liverpool, Manchester, Newcastle and Birmingham – the Foundation provides the charitable backbone to a powerful platform.

At every FB Fashion Ball event, guests, brands and sponsors come together not only to celebrate business success, but to champion "fashion as a force for good" – raising funds and awareness for causes that support children, families and other people in vulnerable situations.

What we focus on

General charitable purposes

We help fund local responses that relieve hardship, improve access to essentials and open up new opportunities.
