Apparel & Fashion - Las Vegas, Nevada, United States
Picture yourself and the five people closest to your heart. Now imagine the six of you are locked in a room, and every night you have to decide which of you will have to go to sleep hungry. One in six children in the U.S. go to bed hungry - we at FBNW are dedicated to helping children in the U.S. suffering from food insecurity.For each item sold, FOR BETTER NOT WORSE (FBNW) gives a bag of groceries to a child in need in the U.S. These are the children that utilize school subsidized meal programs; we fill the void by providing groceries for when school isn't in session such as weekends, holidays, and summer break.We personally distribute the bags of groceries at our monthly FBNW Food Drops that we hold with organizations such as the Boys & Girls Club. These events allow us to engage with the children and families that we directly impact. Our goal is to one day feed thousands of children across the U.S. weekly. FBNW was founded by Patricc Reed a U.S. Marine Corps Veteran who had a desire to create something that benefited less fortunate children in the U.S. After 15 plus years in the fashion industry, Patricc felt that he needed to do "more," he wanted to do more than just create cool clothing. FBNW combines his knowledge and experience in the industry along with his passion to help children in need. He hopes that FBNW inspires other companies and aspiring entrepreneurs to find creative ways to give back through business. Reed runs the company with his girlfriend Fiona and a small team of big-hearted individuals that we like to call FBNW Difference Makers.
