Providenciales, Turks and Caicos Islands
– Turks and Caicos Islands own international
designer and photographer, Kazz Forbes of Saint George Fashion House (SGFH),
has once again been instrumental in empowering, educating and inspiring the
youths of the TCI.
Forbes, who recently
facilitated an eight-week after school fashion club program at the Edward C.
Gartland Youth Center, spoke to nearly three hundred third grade students of
the Clement Howell High School on the topics of 'What is Fashion Design?' and
'Fashion Careers'.
Under the theme: “Dream.
Explore. Discover: Your Path to the Future”, the school’s Career Day sensitizes
the various career opportunities existing in the Turks and Caicos Islands and
the wider Caribbean. The objective of this annual exercise is to assist
students in making informed and important career choices. In an effort to
achieve these goals, personnel from various sectors are invited to make
presentations about career opportunities in their field.
Mr. Forbes says,
“It was indeed an honor and a privilege to speak to the students, providing knowledge
on what is fashion and careers in fashion and encouraging them to set goals and
to follow their dreams, at such an early and important time of their lives”.
“It took about six
minutes to get the students settled as they were screaming and cheering me on
as I made my way to the podium to speak. That spirit displayed immediately motivated
me to continue following my dreams and is indeed a signal of excitement and eagerness
within that body of students to endeavor to be a success”.
