Strategic Partnership: FDRA x INROADS
As a part of our initiative to increase diversity within the footwear industry, FDRA has partnered with INROADS, a nonprofit that creates pathways to careers for minority high schoolers and college students. Through INROADS, companies can gain access to a network of black and brown students and professionals that can meet their hiring needs.

A special thanks to our 2022 Black Footwear Forum sponsors who have donated funds to help bridge gaps and provide greater equity and inclusion within the footwear industry. If your company is interested in supporting BFF or wants to be involved in our general DEI initiatives contact us at info@fdra.org
