Behind The Brand

My name is Vaughn, and I’m the Founder of The Afterdark Project.

The purpose of The AfterDark Project is to create more than just a clothing brand. It’s about making a lasting difference in the lives of at-risk youth.

It was born from my personal experiences growing up and a desire to turn those challenges into something positive. The mission is to ensure the next generation doesn’t feel as alone as I once did and to help pave a path toward a brighter future.

From the start, we knew it couldn’t be just another clothing line with a mission slapped on it. We needed to create a premium apparel brand that people are proud to wear while contributing to meaningful change.

A portion of every sale supports youth programs that offer mentorship, open access to sports, and create safe spaces where kids can feel supported and valued.
