September 8th Dinner
6 P.M. Social Hour | 7 - 8:30 P.M. Dinner and Fashion Show | Hotel Elegante

The Hope & Home Fashion Show is an annual fundraiser for the ministry. As a Christian, non-denominational ministry we prayerfully recruit, extensively train and lovingly supervise great homes and families to rescue children who find themselves in foster care due to the horrors of criminal child abuse and neglect.

Each year, the foster children and their families look forward to taking part in the event by dressing up as what they want to be when they grow up and stomping the runway. You and your guests will get to experience the joy of watching their spirits lifted as they sparkle in the bright and colorful spotlights. It’s an event that you will truly won’t want to miss.

A Spectacular Agenda

If you have never attended the Hope & Home Fashion Show before, you are in for an experience unlike any other.

Social Hour

Upon arrival, you will be greeted by some of our Hope & Home teens who will show you where to get checked in and take advantage of the coat check if you so desire. After you get settled a little, you will have the opportunity to receive a complimentary glass of wine courtesy of one of our sponsors, Sovereignty Wines.

Excitement is in the air as attendees know they are about to participate in something positive and exceptional.

A Fabulous Meal

15 minutes before the start of the show, you will be invited into the grand ballroom to find your table and take your seats. The show will begin promptly at 7 P.M. for dinner with a time of worship and opening prayer.

The Kids Hit the Runway!

What makes our show so unique is that every single child you see on the runway is either currently in foster care or was adopted through foster care. Walking the runway is truly one of the most anticipated moments of their entire life. So, make sure you clap and cheer as loud as you can for every single child.

Children Share Their Stories

After the excitement of the fashion show settles, you’ll have the opportunity to hear some testimonies directly from some of our amazing kids. Please keep in mind – the children who share their story have specifically asked for the opportunity to do so. After so many years of living in silence – this is their chance to share their story with people who will listen. This is an extremely therapeutic experience for them. You are their family.

With Hope & Home, it started out with them giving us the tools we needed to become foster parents. Now, it is so much more: family, friends, support and fun.

We love working with Hope & Home! Foster care has grown us in ways we didn't know we could grow and has enriched our lives in ways we didn't know were possible.
