Glory Apparel Co.
Through the RISE Entrepreneurship Program, students Collette and Emi identified a gap on campus for uniform-approved apparel that matched the aesthetic preferences of their peers. With a solid business plan, they secured resources, including a heat press and materials, to launch their on-campus apparel company. Every piece is designed and hand-pressed by the team, with products sold in our entrepreneurship incubator. By tracking sales and meticulously managing balance sheets, they built a brand that quickly gained popularity, eventually adding Claire to their team to scale production. Today, their company, Glory, features a Christian apparel line and a school-approved uniform collection, with thousands of dollars in profit. With savvy social media marketing, their limited-edition hoodie drops have lines of students waiting outside the store—a testament to their creativity, collaboration, and real-world business acumen. The team donates all profit to a local non-profit that resources victims of human trafficking.
