About FreeGirl Apparel, Inc.
FreeGirl was born from three years of sustained effort by three long-time South Florida-based friends, two cops and a pilot, following the tragedies of 9/11/2001. All three were shocked by coverage of Afghan women being publicly executed for having shown their hair in public. Instead of idly sitting by, they began discussing how they might make a difference by bringing gender-based violence, and specifically violence against women, front-and-center in the world’s eye. All of this ultimately led to the creation of FreeGirl Apparel, Inc. and The FreeGirl Foundation, a not-for-profit corporation

About The FreeGirl Foundation
The FreeGirl Foundation, a not-for-profit corporation, was created to eliminate the dehumanization of women. Our mission is to promote awareness and the prevention of gender-based violence and to empower women and girls everywhere. It is our intention to fund programs and/or individuals and to partner with organizations that will improve the quality of life of females by advancing their independence, security, education, health, self-reliance and freedom.
