THE 111 | Dear Brown You

STAND WITH US.

THE 111 INITIATIVE

Sponsoring The 111 is more than a financial contribution! It is a meaningful partnership in shaping confidence, community, and opportunity for young people.

The 111 is Dear Brown You’s signature youth initiative designed to celebrate young people each year through intentional styling, creative expression, and storytelling. At a time when many youth experience invisibility, low self-esteem, and limited representation, The 111 creates space for affirmation, belonging, and voice. Through sponsorship, partners help make these moments possible.

Sponsorship funds directly support youth centered programming, including curated wardrobe pieces, individualized styling experiences, photography and storytelling resources, affirmation materials, event coordination, and program operations. Each sponsorship helps ensure that young people are engaged in experiences that prioritize dignity, care, and authenticity — not performance or exposure. IT'S THEIR TIME

A YOUNG PERSON : THE 111 INITIATIVE

We place strong emphasis on ethical engagement. Youth participation is always voluntary, guided by parental or guardian consent, and rooted in respect for personal boundaries. Stories are shared thoughtfully, ensuring young people are never reduced to statistics or narratives of struggle, but elevated as whole individuals with unique voices and identities.

By sponsoring The 111, partners become part of a collective effort that extends beyond single moments. Sponsors invest in confidence-building experiences that can influence how young people see themselves long after the event is over. They also help strengthen local ecosystems by supporting collaboration among creatives, educators, families, and community organizations.

Sponsorship with The 111 reflects a shared commitment to youth empowerment, equity in creative access, and community investment. Whether sponsoring one child or an entire cohort, partners play a vital role in affirming the next generation and demonstrating what it looks like to show up with intention.
