Securing FABRIC's Future

Since 2016, FABRIC has been a lifeline for over 2,000 apparel entrepreneurs, offering more than $13 million in free and discounted resources to launch sustainable fashion brands. But now, we face an urgent challenge.
By March 2025, we will lose access to our event space-a vital revenue source that has funded our nonprofit work. This change, due to the City of Tempe’s plans for affordable housing, will create a $250,000 annual funding gap.
Despite this setback, we remain optimistic because of the incredible community we serve. With your help, we can implement innovative solutions and secure FABRIC’s future.
Here’s how you can support us:
Connect us with a partner:
Do you know decision-makers at schools, universities, or corporations that align with our mission?
Support funding efforts:
Are you a grant writer or aware of grants that align with our work in sustainability, economic development, or disadvantaged entrepreneur support?
Share your network:
Do you have contacts with printing companies, established fashion brands, or state programs?
