ABOUT US
Founded in 2014, Glasgow Charity Fashion Show is an student led project and Glasgow’s largest student fundraiser. Our core mission is to support and uplift Scotland based charities, proudly fundraising for a new charity each academic year. Our supported charity is nominated by the public and then voted for by the committee; since inception we have aimed to support a varied range of organisations that reflect the diverse communities at the heart of Glasgow.
The main ethos of GCFS: By Students, For Students, For Glasgow, exemplifies our society’s core values of how we are ran entirely by students, champion students and creativty, as well as aim to uplift the city of Glasgow.
During the 2025/26 academic year, GCFS raised an incredible £50,727.93 for Young Lives Vs Cancer, bringing the total amount raised since the show’s inception in 2014 to over £350,000; over recent years, our charitable partners have also included CHAS, Impact Arts, Glasgow Clyde and Rape Crisis and Refuweegee. As GCFS has grown, so has our achievements and our ability to enhance the fantastic work of our charitable partners.
Our fundraising impact would not be possible without the Glasgow-wide collective of passionate student volunteers who organise it all. From our executive team, to the committee, models and brand ambassadors, each member of the society plays a vital role in our fundraising efforts throughout the year, which culminate in the fashion show at th end of the campaign. Each year, the campaign is a true celebration of the city, every year the show has been one of the largest fundraising effots within the city, and is an ode to Glasgow’s vibrant creative scene. Whilst the show brings together Glasgow-based creatives, students, charity representatives, friends and family, it also fundraisers whilst platforming the work of local fashion students and Scottish designers; designers from our 25/26 SYNERGY show included Tarika Kinney, Mackenzie Jennings and Ice Tiku.
