My Project

In our fashion marketing class, students are learning about marketing strategies and the practical aspects of fashion design and production.

To enhance our hands-on experience, we seek funding for heat press machines essential for creating custom apparel and accessories.

These tools will allow students to bring their creative designs to life and understand the production side of the fashion industry.

Our goals for this project include:

1. Hands-On Learning: Students will learn the heat transfer process, a vital skill in apparel production.

2. Creative Expression: The heat press will enable students to create custom designs, fostering creativity and innovation in fashion marketing.

3. Real-World Application: Students will gain practical experience using the heat press that can be applied in future fashion marketing and design careers.

The heat presses will enhance our curriculum and prepare students for future opportunities in the fashion industry. By learning how to create and market their own designs, students will gain confidence and crucial skills for their careers.
