The Fashion Show:
We invite you to join efforts with us as a sponsor of our 2019 Fashion Show - our major fundraising event which generates two-thirds of the income needed for the PADRE Foundation education and support programs.
On Saturday, May 11, 2019 at the Hyatt Regency Resort in Huntington Beach, the Fashion show will feature our children and teens performing in a choreographed extravaganza reflecting our theme of "30 YEARS of PADRE FAMILY." The kids will join professional models on the runway, displaying the latest fashions compliments of Macy's, in an empowering evening that celebrates imagination, creativity, and the wonders of childhood.
Help us keep childhood special for the children of PADRE. Although they must endure daily needle pricks to test their glucose, receive insulin shots, maintain diet and exercise changes, and live with the constant risk of medical crisis, your support will ensure that our programs continue to serve our kids, their families, and the Type 1 diabetes community.
We ask that you partner with us to be a vital part in the success of our mission. Together we can inspire kids to lead AMAZING lives until a cure for Type 1 diabetes is found!
