About Us
Abel is a social enterprise, non-profit, we exist to create flexible additional income for women experiencing barriers to employment. The women we serve are immigrant women primarily from Syria, Iran and Afghanistan. Every garment is made with love by a woman from our team who sews your Abel clothing from the comfort and safety of her own home.
Proceeds from your purchase go back to supporting the women we work with and are invested into growth so we can support more women experiencing employment barriers.
Our Mission: Fighting poverty with fashion for community economic development.
Our Name: We use the name Abel to symbolize our commitment to seeking justice.
Our Vision: Abel seeks a world with more compassion, meaningful work and slow living.
We started as an idea over 10 years ago and we are so grateful to our community for challenging the fast fashion model and partnering with us and other slow fashion brands to change the industry and the world.
We believe in clothing that doesn't hurt our planet or its people, clothing with purpose. We create sustainability, meaning we don't sacrifice the needs of the future by; using biodegradable materials, natural dyes, organic cotton and 100% cotton prints. We create zero waste collaborations out of our scrap fabric so nothing is put into our local landfills.
Thank you sincerely, for your interest in our work, vision and impact.
