• Andrene Brown, Founder & Executive Director

    Andrene Brown is a Founder and Executive Director of Fine Feather Foundation Inc. Before launching FFF, she partnered with Stacey Newman to launch Fine Feather Kids LLC, which is a children’s clothing company for a cause.  It is through Fine Feather Kids that Brown was able to begin the purposeful mission of transforming the lives of at-risk children with proceeds from the children’s clothing venture.

    Before launching Fine Feather Foundation, Brown juggled quite a few roles. She is an entrepreneur, singer, songwriter, radio host, editor in chief of Caribbean Elite Magazine and her most important role of them all, mother. Though she has many accolades, it is her philanthropic work with Fine Feather Foundation that she describes as the defining role of her life. Brown, along with many partners, have done amazing work on behalf of at-risk children in a short period of time.  She is on the frontlines of every initiative such as back to school drives, clothing donations, educational tools donations, educational program sponsorship and so much more. 

    Brown sees Fine Feather Foundation as an Angel company as the mission is to “Cover the Angels that cover us!”  Empowered by her own experience of child abuse, Brown has decided to make prevention and early intervention a priority while addressing and supporting the physical, mental and emotional needs of children.
