THE CALL THAT STARTED IT ALL
In 2016, the Fam 1st Family Foundation received a phone call from Italy, Alessandro Zanchi and Giorgio Mallone, now partners and founder of Family 1st Milano. We immersed into the fashion capital of the world that was built on the values of authenticity, community, and most importantly, family.
They spoke passionately of their goals and partnering with our non-profit to curate a meaningful mission that uprising in the fashion world: bringing together the design and craftsmanship of Milan in collaboration with the style and culture of Oakland.
