The culmination of each semester brings the Graduation Fashion Shows. It is one of my favorite parts of the program because it serves to remind students that donating their time and energy to those in need can be a “beautiful” experience. It is our goal to demonstrate to each student the importance of considering others and that the results positively affect how they feel about themselves.

The Fashion Focus program has been able to give money and recognition to many different national and local charities. I am proud of all of my students who have participated in each event and I am confident they feel the same sense of satisfaction that I do.
