What Is Vision De Garçon™
Vision De Garçon™ (VDG) was created as a humanitarian platform to shine a light on global issues overlooked by mainstream media. A voice for the unspoken, telling their stories through various forms of art, clothing and creative expression.
The Meaning Behind The Name
Vision De Garçon, French for The Boy's Vision, was chosen as a testament to all the boys and girls around the world who had the same dreams and visions as us but couldn't get to live them out due to factors like poverty and war.
