At the event’s finale, laughter filled the air as members competed in friendly games under the California sun — ending the day with an outdoor movie night that felt like summer’s soft goodbye. Two lucky winners were gifted a selection of Ever Lasting favorites, designed to bring comfort, calm, and a sense of home to their dorm rooms:

• Sweet Lace Red Plaid Ribbon Pajama Set / V Neck – Lightweight, breathable, and delicately soft against the skin. Crafted for slow mornings and unhurried nights.

• Striped Slippers – Cozy, cushioned soles wrapped in gentle cotton blends — the perfect companion for post-study relaxation.

• Silky Ruffle Bedsheet – Smooth, non-toxic fabric with a subtle sheen and airy drape, creating a tranquil foundation for restful sleep.

• Silky Ruffle Pillowcase – A soothing finish that feels like a whisper against the skin, designed to protect hair and enhance nightly comfort.
  
  

As one member put it, “Huge thank you to @everlastingfabric for spoiling us with the cutest prizes” — a small note that meant the world. Because for us, comfort is more than fabric — it’s the feeling of being supported, understood, and at ease in your own space.

Each piece we create at Ever Lasting carries the intention of mindful living — made in small batches, with non-toxic materials, and through partnerships that uplift skilled artisans around the world. Collaborations like this remind us why we began: to use design as a force for connection and care.

Through EverGiving, we continue to extend that mission — supporting organizations and creative programs that nurture imagination, build confidence, and celebrate the beauty of thoughtful work.

“EverGiving, for me, began with the belief that comfort can be a form of care. When we create something soft and lasting, it carries more than material value — it holds a quiet energy of being seen, supported, and encouraged.

My background in fashion taught me how design can shape emotion, and how creativity, when nurtured, becomes a force that can shift entire industries. Ever Lasting was built from that belief — that beauty and thoughtfulness can exist in something as everyday as bedding. I wanted to create pieces that felt human again, and in doing so, reimagine what comfort truly means.

Creativity is what made Ever Lasting possible, and it’s the heart behind EverGiving. I know how hard it can be for young creatives to find a platform when every path feels blocked or oversaturated. That’s why I believe in creating spaces that build confidence as much as opportunity — places where ideas can grow and work can shine.

Collaborating with FAST at UCLA reminded me of my own early days: staying up late, building from pure passion and instinct. These students carry that same spark. Supporting them isn’t charity — it’s community in motion.

EverGiving is about passing on that warmth, helping the next generation of creatives feel grounded enough to take risks, dream bigger, and make something that lasts.”
