CROWDFUNDING CAMPAIGN

“Style the Future. Support the Vision.”

Africa Fashion Week Amsterdam (AFWA) has always been about more than fashion — it’s about identity, sustainability, creativity, and connection. For our 11th edition, we are calling on our global community to stand with us as we bring together designers, creatives, changemakers, and policymakers to shape a sustainable, inclusive future through fashion and the Blue Economy.

With your support, we can make this vision bigger, bolder, and more inclusive than ever before.

Why We’re Crowdfunding

While we have incredible institutional and private partners, we believe that community ownership and grassroots engagement are essential to our mission. Every contribution—big or small—helps us:

• Sponsor young African designers and creatives to participate in AFWA 2025

• Ensure representation of women- and youth-led SMEs from underserved communities

• Create high-impact cultural programs and exhibitions

• Keep core elements of the event accessible to the broader public and diaspora

• Develop digital tools and livestreams to expand access beyond Amsterdam

This campaign is not just funding an event, it’s fueling a movement rooted in sustainability, equity, and cultural innovation.

Your Impact = Real Results

Every euro you give goes directly into:

• Flights and accommodation for designers and speakers

• Production costs for fashion shows, exhibitions, and workshops

• Visual storytelling, content creation, and post-event impact reporting

• Venue setup, accessibility services, and artist fees

• Youth innovation labs and diaspora engagement programs
