Obakki is more known for its draping, minimalistic beauty than anything else, though they do have a very important lesser known feature – their Obakki Foundation.

In the words of founder Treana Peake, the Obakki Foundation offers people hope, empowerment and a chance to learn and grow. It’s about giving people the opportunity to be creative—using thoughts, ideas, art and fashion to stand up and participate in improving the lives of those who need it most.

Keep up with the progress of the Obakki Foundation through their blog, Twitter or Facebook page.  If you have questions regarding the charity, contact Obakki’s Foundation here.

I would encourage you to donate to the Foundation, even if it’s a few dollars that may have otherwise gone to Starbucks. 

After all, small sacrifices make big changes.
