Why I Give
“The value of an LIM College education cannot be underestimated. The knowledge and opportunities imparted to students are so valuable. That is why I support LIM Fashion Education Foundation - because it ensures more students have access to the invaluable education and experiences needed to succeed.”

“I support LIM Fashion Education Foundation because I believe in the importance of its work. Many LIM College students are the first in their families to attend college and, in the best of times, are heavily reliant on financial aid to attend school.”
