Benibeca is not just a fashion brand.
We design clothes with a purpose.
We design clothes with a purpose.
We act as agents of change towards a more equitable and fair world.
The world needs a fair distribution of resources and projects that consider humanity. We must commit to humane causes that offer real and lasting opportunities. People inspire our work, and their stories motivate us to advocate for change. Our contribution is based on giving back a percentage of our sales to help groups and minorities living in poverty.
1% FOR CRAFTSMANSHIP
Handicrafts deserve a place in the fashion industry.
As fundamental support, Benibeca allows artisans to resume their activity and achieve sufficient living conditions. We support our producers with rates that dignify traditional forms of work. In addition, we give back to each artisan an extra 1% of the sales of the garments they have made and purchased through Benibeca's online shop.
Manufacturers such as Raúl Núñez, an Inca descendant who specializes in loom work, or Eusebio Nuñez, a weaver and craftsman, are already part of the Benibeca family. These people, whom we name, share their ancestral knowledge generously and are essential in producing luxury pieces such as our Ruanas. Both live in the artisan village of Hualhuas, at an altitude of more than 3,200 meters in Peru. This village has been deeply affected by the Covid-19 crisis.
Sharing a part of our profits with them is our way of caring for those who carry out essential work to develop the brand and face unfavorable conditions. We want to create a positive benefit in their lives so they continue to grow and be better prepared for possible adversities.
ONE EURO OF OUR SALES IS GIVEN TO THE NGO ADELANTE AFRICA, WHICH WORKS FOR CHILD AND SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT IN IGAYAZA, A REMOTE VILLAGE IN UGANDA. A NEW KIND OF SLOW LUXURY DEFINES THE BRAND DNA.

Human stories move us, and Adelante Africa is an act of giving marked by destiny.
It all started with a tourist trip to Virunga National Park, famous for its gorillas. As fate would have it, the truck in which a group of Spanish and British tourists rode got stuck in this area. They had to stop at a local primary school for aid. It was an impoverished school built for children of war, refugees, and families with AIDS from the north of the country. These children could not afford the minimal Government fees in this area. The mud building, with classes separated by ragged curtains, touched the conscience of the travelers who decided to take action and rebuild it.
After creating a new school, they realized the village needed more. Some children suffered from malaria, others from malnutrition. Here, they decided to settle in and work closely with the human needs of the local community. So they subsequently created a children's home where they rescued 63 children. The organization also works further to integrate these children who spend weekends with local host families.
In 2027, through an innovative sponsorship program, they founded a secondary school for 60 children who see education as their way out of poverty. Adelante Africa participates in community projects for adult education, such as planting vegetables, constructing water tanks, and offering interest-free microloans. They also have health programs, such as the visit of a group of Spanish surgeons who travel to the locality to operate for a few days.
We want to be an active part
Those who dedicate themselves to this organization do so vocationally. They are all volunteers, no hired people, and the trips are paid for personally. Donor money is used for projects, website operations, and bank transactions. Currently, they work with teachers, farmers, and small business owners. They form a group of twelve local volunteers who dedicate their time and effort to benefiting the community.
We want to be an active part of the initiatives of this social change organization. With our financial contribution, we help Adelante Africa's projects become a reality.
