Honouring Suzanne Rogers
Suzanne Rogers is a dedicated supporter of Canada’s fashion industry, a champion for young people and a devoted leader of causes that strengthen and shape Canadian civic and cultural life.
After decades of committed support for a wide range of notable causes in the arts sector, in 2016, Suzanne proudly launched The Suzanne Rogers Fashion Institute (SRFI) at Toronto Metropolitan University, a ground-breaking program that educates, supports, promotes and advocates for the next generation of Canadian design talent.
Deeply passionate about issues related to children’s welfare in Canada and beyond, through the spectacular “Suzanne Rogers Presents” (where Suzanne collaborates with some of the industry’s most respected names, including Oscar de la Renta, Victoria Beckham, and Diane von Furstenberg), Suzanne combines the worlds of fashion and philanthropy to raise funds to better the lives of underprivileged and endangered children. To date, The Edward and Suzanne Rogers Foundation has raised over $4 million to combat child poverty.
