Founded in 2019 with a mission to empower youth growing up in challenging environments, our company began by teaching silk screen printing in person at community recreation centers to at-risk young people during a time of remote learning. From these roots, we developed “UUV”, a globally recognized street wear brand inspired by Washington, D.C.’s adrenaline-fueled sports culture. Leveraging our brand’s success, we partnered with Route 1 Music Group to provide tour support for emerging artists such as EL COUSTEAU and QP KNOCKOUT, expanding our influence within communities nationwide. Committed to fostering the next generation of leaders, we launched comprehensive programs within the DC Public School system and Marion Barry’s Summer Youth Employment Program, offering hands-on training in entrepreneurship, brand building, music production, songwriting, engineering, and the music business. As our brand continues to grow, we remain dedicated to delivering innovative products and enriching experiences, ensuring our community engagement shapes every aspect of our business.
