Empowering Our Fat Community
Fat Haven is a resource that connects size-inclusive brands, organizations, and businesses with our Fat community.
We make it easier for everyday people to find companies that deeply resonate with our unique needs--companies that design for, listen to, advertise with, and celebrate the Fat community.
It would be cool to make a video about what Fat Haven is/does and then have clips of different people saying what FH means to them... Casual, like social media; adjust 1x1 to vertical video
* Safety. * Trust. * Celebration.* What is this Magic?* Soft Place to Land. * Make their life easier.* Where has this been all my life?!

Our Timeline of Growth
Feb 2024
Grace began compiling a list of size-inclusive brands & said, "If I need this list, maybe my community does too."
Aug 2024
The list was published as the Plus-Size Database--a simple database spreadsheet with 300+ entries.
Nov 2024
Y'all went ga-ga for the database!! Grace quickly realized that it needed a major overhaul to grow exponentially & sustainably.
May 2025
The Plus-Size Database relaunched as Fat Haven, a fully optimized directory website.
Future
Fat Haven is built to last & will support the directory as it grows from 358 to 500... 1,000... 10,000+ entries.

Meet other Fat-Specific directories working toward Fat Liberation!
Incredible humans have been doing the work of advocating for & connecting various communities, including our Fat community, for decades!! I am so grateful for the people & organizations who have done, or are still doing, similar work. While I will work tirelessly to make Fat Haven the most comprehensive resource I'm capable of creating, I will also always highlight & celebrate other creators making Fat Liberation more accessible.
→ Special shout out to Tigress Owens, Executive Director of NAAFA, for guiding me to some of these resources.
→ Special shout out to anyone who has compiled size-inclusive resources in a podcast, blog, social media post, etc!!
