YAWANAWA

In 2017, we traveled to the Gregório river in the Amazon and started a beautiful and lasting partnership, with the Yawanawa people. Since then, we support them and their history through the structuring of the handicraft chain, reforestation projects, digital inclusion, and cultural festivals. It's about healing, care and respect.

BOI DE SANTA FÉ

It all started in early 2019 when we joined the “Boi de Santa Fé”, a folkloric group from Maranhão, Brasil. With this partnership and the sales of the Folk Party styles, we support the “Associação Cultural do Bumba–meu–boi e Tambor de Crioula Unidos de Santa Fé”, contributing to the perpetuation of one of the most symbolic cultural expressions in Brasil.​ FARM Rio believes in popular culture as an agent for the transformation of people, in Brasil and all around the globe. Through this partnership, we are investing in the Plan for Transferring Knowledge and Maintaining the Cultural Asset "'Boi de Santa Fé"', which offers embroidery, music, and dance workshops for about 150 people from the local community. The campaign for the collection included models, who are part of the Unidos de Santa Fé group, and part of the technical team made up of professionals from the region.

SMILEY®

Smiley®, joy, and good vibes. We started a partnership with Smiley in 2021, sharing our good vibes and love for the sun. We placed our prints on pants, overalls, skirts, dresses, t-shirts, sweatshirts, windbreakers, jumpsuits, hats, and bags. In return, we donated USD 17,045.4 (Brasil + Global) to Smile Train, a leading organization for the treatment of cleft lip and palate. The donation was used to pay for 112 reconstructive surgeries.
