Both programs aim to help companies to modernize equipment, expand services, and train workers \u2013 building the capacity and resilience of American fashion manufacturing.<\/p>\n<p>\nThese programs build on the success of the CFDA\u2019s Fashion Manufacturing Initiative (FMI), launched in 2013 in affiliation with the New York City Economic Development Corporation (NYCEDC), Andrew Rosen, and with the long-term support of Ralph Lauren, among others. To date, Ralph Lauren has contributed $2 million as FMI\u2019s Premier Underwriter, enabling grants to 54 factories and positively impacting more than 2,000 jobs.<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;Strengthening American manufacturing to ensure designers have local partners has long been at the core of CFDA\u2019s mission,&#8221; said Steven Kolb, CEO and President of the CFDA. &#8220;We are proud to extend our decade-plus work with Ralph Lauren Corporation and expand to a national level while also continuing our local NYC investments alongside our first-ever partnership with the New York State Department of State.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nTogether, these new grant programs mark a landmark commitment: sustaining New York\u2019s Garment District while bolstering U.S. manufacturing nationwide \u2014 ensuring that American fashion continues to lead globally through innovation, craftsmanship and community.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cOur expanded partnership with the CFDA reflects Ralph Lauren\u2019s enduring commitment to advancing innovation and supporting American fashion,\u201d said Katie Ioanilli, Chief Global Impact &amp; Communications Officer, Ralph Lauren Corporation. \u201cThis is not only an investment in our industry \u2014 it\u2019s an investment in a vital part of American culture that we share with the world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><b>The CFDA x NY Forward Grant Fund<br \/>\n<br \/><\/b>The CFDA x <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ny.gov%2Fny-forward%2Fny-forward-round-one&amp;esheet=54388952&amp;newsitemid=20260107442474&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=NY+Forward&amp;index=1&amp;md5=9ed4f9b27648a46b8f5c3d69e3d6fb77\">NY Forward<\/a> Grant Fund, created in partnership with the New York State Department of State, is dedicated to sustaining the New York City Garment District, the historic heart of American fashion production.
