Join the FTA Creator Community
Anyone interested in supporting our non-profit organization can join the FTA Creator Community!
If you are a Canadian high school student then you have the added benefit of supporting our cause, raising awareness for the environmental benefits of buying secondhand, by becoming an FTA Creator and turning your thrifting videos into volunteer hours!
How to Become an FTA Creator
Do you love thrifting? Become an FTA Creator!
First, shoot a video on TikTok or Instagram about your commitment to secondhand fashion and why you think it is good for the environment.
Next, be sure to tag @fashiontakesaction and use #IAmAThrifter in your post.
If you’re selected, you’ll receive a message from our official @fashiontakesaction account inviting you to support us in raising awareness, as an FTA Creator!
FTA Creator Rules
- Each FTA Creator must share one video per month, highlighting why thrifting is good for the planet, on their personal Instagram/TikTok account.
- Submit your content for review by tagging @fashiontakesaction and use #IAmAThrifter in your post.
- If you are a Canadian high school student in need of volunteer hours, complete your school’s Community Volunteer Hour form to show the hours you spent making your video. Send to IAmAThrifter@fashiontakesaction.com and FTA will review and authorize.
