I am here in my own way

That fits with your way

In whatever way it may be

Because no matter how you look at it

We need each other

You need me, and I need you

We are bridging the gap by wearing the cap

Friendship is the invisible force that carries us through difficult times. Sometimes, you' re the strong shoulder someone leans on, other times you're the one who needs support. Friendship is something shared; no one has to face it alone. In our new campaign, ‘Bridging the gap by wearing the cap,’ everything revolves around the shared strength of friendship. The caps Cameron and Davis, specially designed for the F|Fort Foundation, symbolize the connection between young people navigating life together. Everyone experiences feelings of loneliness at some point—it's perhaps part of life. However, that feeling becomes bigger and more overwhelming when, due to illness or other circumstances, you're sidelined against your will. In such situations, it can often be hard to express what you need from your friends, while they, in turn, struggle with how to provide the right support.

The saddest part is when assumptions are made for each other, leading to waiting endlessly on both sides. Wearing Cameron and Davis shows that you're willing to talk or listen when needed, but also that you can share silence together. It signifies your readiness to go on adventures together when one of you wants to forget everything for a while. With our caps, you can convey these sentiments without needing complex words. A simple glance at each other is enough to know you're not alone. What you share is unconditional, and a little awkwardness won't break the bond of friendship. With humor and resilience, we bridge the gap—in our own way, together.


This project is an initiative by AFFêRE and the F|Fort Foundation. The caps were designed in collaboration between these organizations and MARTAN, under the direction of Diek Pothoven. The production and concept development of the campaign were executed by AFFêRE, the F|Fort Foundation, and QV Creative, with special thanks to Claartje Bours and Koen van Driel.
