Event Alert: Fashion For HOPE


October 17, 2010 marks the special day of Fashion for Hope. Inner Expressions and Women for Women International (WFWI) will come together for our second annual must see event. Fashion for Hope was created with the vision of helping others. This event will begin with a small meet and greet cocktail VIP reception followed by the extraordinary Fashion Showcase. This fashion showcase will highlight designers on skills and creativity. Proceeds from this event will support the organizations projects and programs.

As seen on Oprah, WFWI mobilizes women to change their lives through a holistic approach that address the unique needs of women in conflict and post- conflict environments. WFWI begin by working with women who may have lost everything in conflict and often have nowhere else to turn. As each woman engages in a multi-phase process of recovery and rehabilitation, she opens a window of opportunity presented by the end of conflict to help improve the rights, freedoms and status of women in her country. As women who go through the program assume leadership positions in their villages, actively participate in the reconstruction of their communities, build civil society, start businesses, train other women and serve as role models, they become active citizens who can help to establish lasting peace and stability.
