Charity

Nick Angel started his fashion lines with charity as his main focus. Recognizing the branding value of his families name of Angel, he came to the realization that his designer fashion lines had the ability to drive charitable donations by staying true to the names meaning by donating a hefty portion of the proceeds to corresponding charities and allowing purchasers of his apparel the ability to be angels themselves by knowing they made a donation, thus earning the right to don Angel Wear.
