#TSRPositiveImages: Remy Ma just launched two new ventures this week that are both aimed at helping a community of women close to her heart! Along with debuting her clothing line, The Remy Ma Collection, she also started a new non-profit organization called The Remy Ma Foundation, which will work to help formerly incarcerated women get the resources and opportunities they need to be successful in society.
“I’m so excited to finally launch my very own clothing line through @vimvixen! When I got out of prison, I wanted to do something to support women just like me… women who have done their time and paid their debt to society. Nonetheless, these women are still over-looked and forgotten after being released from jail or prison. Resources and services are largely catered to men, disregarding the women that greatly need our support,” she shared on Instagram.
She added that a portion of the proceeds from the clothing line will go to supporting the foundation. “A portion of the proceeds from my clothing line “The Remy Ma Collection” will go towards my foundation @remymafoundation, which helps women who have experienced incarceration, by providing opportunities and life-long resources to help enhance their lives and the lives of their families.”
Remy went on to say that she’s “so very proud of this moment!”
“Launching both a clothing line and foundation are two things I have been very passionate about since my release from prison! I want to thank my entire team and @VIMVixen for seeing and supporting my vision of helping women all over the country!”
Congrats to Remy Ma!
