Redding Fashion Alliance was founded in 2015 by Jan Kearns, Robin Fator and Rachel Hatch. We started by answering the question: “What if Redding had a bustling fashion industry?” What started as an idea is now a fully functional non-profit organization. We believe that we can change and improve the quality of life in our community by fostering its creative economy, increasing living wage jobs, and providing designer guidance for high quality, small batch manufacturing of apparel, accessories and textile based products.

As the co-owner of the Enjoy companies, she brings an in-depth knowledge of and connection with the northstate community. Her passion for the Redding Fashion Alliance stems from her original degree in Fashion Design from Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising and she is looking forward to bringing that expertise to RFA. She is very excited to take the lead of the Fashion Alliance and help grow the fashion economy in this community.
