NI EN MORE
NI EN MORE
NI EN MORE is a social innovation project and non profit merging political activism, fashion and art. In the past few years, we have worked alongside underprivileged women in Cd. Juárez, MX, with a comprehensive set of programming that includes educational activities, business mentorship, workshops, and more. Our goal is creating job opportunities that not only provide dignity, sustainable and fair income to our team but also help them build confidence and skills that contribute to long term financial independence.
Our latest project, the Raramuri Community School Program, aims to help indigenous women to complete their basic education. The platform works with the online platform provided by ICHEA and “Aula 286”, an online school dedicated to providing education for adults. Our first cohort of 10 women recently began their courses.
This year we started an art therapy flower print course in migrant shelters, in which psychological support is given to migrant women and who, upon finishing the course of six sessions, receive an economic support gift card of 100 dlls to help with their immediate needs and expenses.

NI EN MORE is a non-profit social innovation project and clothing brand that merges political activism, fashion and art.
We believe in the transformative impact of economically empowered women. We also make beautiful, one of a kind garments with extraordinary prints.
Why?
Women are the backbones of a community, an economy, a country.
Cd. Juarez, Mexico, has been known for the systematic murders of women. Although the victims come from all levels of society, the majority are women who live in contexts of vulnerability due to their socio-economic condition, race and origin.
Our purpose is to change the circumstances for a group of women in Cd Juarez that were once amongst the most vulnerable, through creating jobs with dignity, income that is sustainable and fair, and skills that can contribute to long term financial independence.
Long term, we want to create opportunities for the daughters of these women, because, as research has shown, if you educate a girl then you educate a whole nation.
And we want to make beautiful garments that make people feel genuinely happy, knowing that their purchases contribute to change.
