Charlotte Young Bowens: Outdoor Gear for the Plus-Size Community

Charlotte Young Bowens: Outdoor Gear for the Plus-Size Community
Charlotte: As an outdoor gear and apparel company focusing on bigger bodies, we’re committed to ensuring that people in the plus-size community can purchase gear and apparel that fits their bodies. We’re also advancing size inclusivity in outdoor activities and the outdoor industry at large. Research has shown that time spent exploring the outdoors on a regular basis can support and ensure continued physical and mental well-being. We’re all about our three C’s which start with being a customer-centered company focused on creation by and for bigger bodies and we produce products that are customer-validated.  Finally, we know that comfortable clothing and gear nurtures confidence in people to live a healthy lifestyle with their chosen outdoor activity.

Jennifer Seda: Cleaning Up, One Street at a Time
Jennifer: Thanks for having me, Spiffy! So, we reduce the litter that lines the streets of the South Bronx sidewalks and community gardens by hosting weekly clean-ups. In the beginning, what motivated me was my love for my borough and its history. That love continues to motivate me. It’s less about picking up trash and more about building community connections through our love for our neighborhoods and green spaces.
