Oscar Fierro Foundation
Every country needs good leaders, and within every impoverished classroom are promising individuals who need motivation to lead - which is the driving force behind the Oscar Fierro Foundation.
Oscar left El Salvador for the U.S. in 1989, but his love for his country never waned. He has always been a philanthropist, and leadership is a trait that, since Oscar's elementary school days, comes naturally to him.
This led him to create the Oscar Fierro Foundation.
Growing up, Oscar experienced the disadvantages of attending impoverished schools within a third-world country. But despite hardships, the motivation to better himself, his environment and those around him was never lacking. From the first grade on, Oscar was class president every year, and by the age of 11, he had raised money to improve his school. He was dedicated to leading and making a difference.
The Oscar Fierro Foundation supports students and their schools within developing countries. Once a year, the Foundation repairs an existing school or builds a new one within an impoverished community, giving children the essential tools needed to further their education, and a chance at a better life. The Foundation provides desks and school supplies, and also sponsors a leadership program to empower and reward all classroom presidents for their leadership efforts, encouraging them to give back to their school and community.
Oscar Fierro - the man and the label - displays an unceasing exuberance in his forward-thinking attitude throughout his business and life. Whether creating an image for fashion, or designing a school to assist those he cares most about, Oscar Fierro is making an impact on his community at a local and global level.
