We kicked off Black History Month last night at the 15percentpledge gala in Los Angeles. A night of community where diversity is alive and celebrated and the dress code is #BlackTieBlackDesigner 

For the last five years, the Fifteen Percent Pledge has been working alongside major corporations to re-evaluate their organizational structures, funding streams, and supply chains, in order to create new economic opportunities and greater equity for Black businesses. Simply put, if 15% of the population is Black then that should be reflected throughout the inner and outer workings of your organization if it is truly equitable. 

As part of their efforts to generate economic opportunity they host a gala each year to honor those who are fighting for greater equity for Black businesses in fashion and retail. They also award three Black businesses with cash grants and since starting their efforts have infused over 70 billion dollars back into the Black community. 

Tonight a family business that was devastated by the LA fires was among those awarded with a grant and Kensington Grey’s incredible brand partners (sheamoisture, danessa_myricks, forvrmood and neutrogena) hosted several creators last night for this important initiative.
