Our issue focuses on creating opportunities for students through fashion and entrepreneurship while using local materials to minimize the large amounts of waste and pollution that result from overproduction and fast fashion. We chose these issues because many students have talent and creativity but don’t always get the chance to apply those skills in real projects. We wanted to change that by building a student-led clothing brand that connects design, business, and community impact, showing that fashion can be both innovative and environmentally responsible.
Through this project, we plan to design a hoodie that tells the story of Ohio .
We hope this project inspires other students to explore entrepreneurship and creativity while supporting their community. Every hoodie purchased helps fund the school's purchase of a farewell gift to the class of '26.
