Toni Garrn Foundation - Fundraising

The Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation invited Toni Garrn to join them for this year’s fundraising event in Monte Carlo. The event was hosted by many prominent celebrities and fundraisers, among them Madonna and Pierce Brosnan. Guests from all over the world were welcome to enjoy an evening full of entertainment. It included a spectacular auction of special items, of which all earnings benefit the foundations presenting their cause throughout the night. 

The main initiatives are:

• Saving the oceans from pollution
  (Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation)
• Educating girls and young women (Toni Garrn Foundation)
• Supporting children in Africa, mainly Malawi (Raising Malawi)

With this year’s main fundraising event, Toni is very enthusiastic to raise large funds for her ongoing projects in Africa.

Apart from Ladurée Soho, the event was supported by Chopard who donated a special auction item. The cocktail party raised a total of $25,340. Funds were raised towards current projects in Africa of the Toni Garrn Foundation.

Toni Garrn's "Supermodel Flea Market" is the most fun way to shop, while benefiting girls' education! Originally conceived in 2015, when Toni realized that she and many of her model friends had too many clothes, she decided to collect from her friends and organize a sale raising money for girls education projects. 

At the first one-day shopping event, over $20,000 was raised and Toni was convinced that this ha a potential for a much bigger future! In its second year (2016), the sale was expanded to a three-day event in New York held during New York Fashion Week, where over $60,000 was raised. In its most iteration (2017), Toni's Supermodel Flea Market went global thanks to a partnership with Vestiaire Collective, the internet's leading "re-commerce" website for luxury retail goods. Not only were clothes sold in three retail pop-up stores across Europe, but additionally clothes were also offered through an online-shopping platform for worldwide sales. 

These efforts raised over €100,000 for her foundation. Stay tuned for what's to come with this year's flea market... there has never been a better reason to shop!
