Fashion for Good aims to bring sustainable innovations to a wide audience by introducing those solutions to big brands and retailers, as well as educating consumers on sustainability. Changing the industry means everybody needs to take ownership of their personal role. Actively sharing knowledge on this topic helps to accelerate the change of the apparel industry to transform into a circular system. As a change maker, Fashion for Good enables conversation and collaboration throughout its Experience.
To work towards this mission, we rely on our Experience team – of which volunteers are an essential part. You can find our full volunteer policy here.
Volunteers play an important role in welcoming and informing all visitors to the museum – they are important ambassadors who actively introduce Fashion for Good and its philosophy to the visitor. The commitment of volunteers is of great importance in making the museum come to life and ensuring a positive visit each and every time. We are always open for new volunteers to join us, if you are interested in volunteering your time in support of the work we do, please keep reading!

COMPANY BACKGROUND & CULTURE
Launched in March 2017, Fashion for Good is a global organisation that aims to reimagine how fashion is designed, made, worn and reused. This open and inclusive initiative brings together brands, retailers, suppliers, non-profit organisations, innovators, funders and individuals united in their shared ambition to make all fashion good.
Fashion for Good is changing the apparel industry through innovation and collaboration. Our Innovation Platform scouts, nurtures and funds early-stage ideas, scaling proven technologies and business models for wider adoption by the industry. Our Good Fashion Fund catalyses access to finance and our open-source Good Fashion Guide shares knowledge to help the apparel industry transform. As a convenor for change, we enable conversation and collaboration, bringing together co-locators in our headquarters in Amsterdam, as well as visitors to the Fashion for Good Experience to learn more about Good Fashion.
Fashion for Good’s Programmes are supported by founding partner Laudes Foundation (formerly C&A Foundation), co-founder William McDonough and corporate partners adidas, C&A, CHANEL, BESTSELLER, Galeries Lafayette Group, Kering, Otto Group, PVH Corp., Stella McCartney, Target and Zalando and affiliate partners Arvind, Norrøna, vivobarefoot and Welspun
