ID CARE

Scholarship Program Initiative

What is ID Care?

ID Care is a scholarship program for the children of our employees that are in need of financial support. This not only helps create a sustainable and bright future for the beneficiaries but also keeps them from being employed illegally under the child labor law. We encourage our clients to ask for support of any kind to help grow this initiative further and touch more lives. The initiative has brought about big shifts in the way the parents think about education and labor.

Process

Merit Based Screening Process Of Applications

This is usually the hardest part. Saying no. But we do our best to sustain a system so that there is a structure and clear motivation from the receiving end. Applications are selected based on students’ past performance, however we do consider grey areas based on need and potential.

Finalizing The Budget

In discussion with management, a budget is finalized for the allocation of scholarships for the given year. This is where White Stuff Clothing has a great contribution in helping extend the budget and providing more scholarships that we would not have been able to grant by ourselves.

Follow Up & Mentoring

This is the most important task. After paying the fees, there is mentoring for the children and parents, regular updates of the child's progress through school visits as well as counseling for the parents in the respective units.

"The Fatface Foundation was created to make a positive and enduring difference to the communities where we source, manufacture, retail and distribute our products. We pride ourselves in enabling our partners, chosen local charities, suppliers, customers and crew to make a difference whilst achieving their lifetime ambitions. Since 2009, we’ve raised over £2.3 million for charities across the UK and abroad through the generous donations of our customers, crew and from our one-of-a-kind shop in Havant, Hampshire, UK."

Together, we do more.

Along with being a sponsor to fund our Scholarship Program from 2023-2028, Fatface Foundation has also adopted the first Government Public School - Sidiqiya Government Urdu School, in association with Parikrama Humanity Foundation to improve the environment, facilities, infrastructure and standard of education. Together, we are able to kickstart scaling this initiative to help such institutions succeed and further this vision.

Thank You, White Stuff

Two words that barely scrape the surface of our gratitude. Funding our scholarship program for the seventh consecutive year, since 2011, White Stuff Foundation have been an incredible partner in our cause and they have joined in and made it their own as well.
So far, we have 3168 beneficiaries over the last seven years.
We are grateful and humbled by their unwavering support, without which we would have never reached such numbers.

This brilliant video really captures the essence of this initiative. White Stuff Clothing has supported 1300 scholarships so far through the sales of their ‘Made for Change’ cloth bags, that are made in our factory as well, utilizing fabric waste.
