History

Since 2007, FFF has hosted an annual charity fashion show drawing hundreds of women across Southern California and guests from all over the nation. Fashion Fighting Famine began as an event titled "Fashion Fighting Famine” and was organized by a young group of Muslim women based in Irvine, California. Inspired by a desire to support charity in a unique way, they began hosting an event featuring the work of local and talented performances by community members. In 2010, Nida Chowdhry, the current Executive Director, and Asmaa Hassanein, former Co-Director and current Advisor, established FFF as an organization and developed the current goals, scope and vision that are in place.
