Our Origin Story
After the birth of my daughter in December 2023 there was an instant perspective shift. On Christmas Eve when she was four days old, I responded to a post on Facebook seeking newborn diapers and formula for a mother in need (which I dropped off to a porch) As a new mother myself I couldn’t stop thinking of those who may be struggling to feed and clothe their babies and what else I could do to help.
I knew I had the energy and ideas to connect the dots in a new way and ask my contacts in the fashion industry to give back to those in need.
With one phone call at a time it was evident there was a lot of need out there and the Toronto apparel industry answered the call- they supported with their time, talent, and resources. Turning an idea into something tangible with a lot steps in between.
The Love Club was a wild idea in January 2024 and quickly went from a project to a mission. Showing its vast potential to be a cause driven community builder that connects clothing and collaboration with those marginalized. The Love Club took its first steps 9 months later when we delivered to our first three charity partners.
