'As we continue to navigate the post Covid-19 landscape locally; cases continuing to pop up, we are reminded that the crisis is far from over - particularly for those in India. Breaking new records - recording deaths of up to 4000 daily, the devastation caused to families of possibly preventable deaths, due to an overwhelmed health system and lack of oxygen, is beyond belief.
As a fashion industry, Australia is powerful. Not only this, but we rely on India for creativity – for the unique Artisan skills, to the cotton from their fields. Now is our turn to give back and support a country in dire need.
AUS FASHION AID for India is a collective movement – we are better together. Whether you are a brand, retailer, sole trader, influencer – your contribution will save not only lives, but an industry that we rely on globally.'
