Rags2Riches

Rags2Riches (R2R) is a fashion and design house committed to improving the quality of life of and empowering Filipino artisans living in less advantaged communities. It provides a fully integrated and sustainable livelihood platform to communities that desire to increase their incomes, gain access to social services, and build a roadmap for them and their families to get out poverty. Since its establishment, Rags2Riches has trained 1,000 Filipino community-based artisans. The enterprise is scaling its impact through two tech-enabled platforms – The Artisan Academy and Things That Matter – growing them in the Philippines and in some parts of Asia.
