I was born in Malawi one of the poorest countries on the planet with very little, but was given opportunities along the way. Now four decades later I have built an amazing company that powers the global fashion industry. Founders Pledge is a platform that allows me to pay it forward to those less fortunate in the world (for kids in Malawi who haven't been given the chances I have had). We can all help inspire and educate with our resources, experiences and networks.
