The Fashion Show:
We invite you to join efforts with us as a sponsor of our 2017 Fashion Show- our major event which generates two-thirds of the income needed for the PADRE Foundation education and support programs.
On Saturday, May 13th, 2017 at the Hyatt Regency Resort in Huntington Beach, the Fashion show features our children and teens performing in a choreographed extravaganza reflecting our theme of "Deep into the Blue." Additionally, they join professional models on the runway, displaying the latest fashion s 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 exercises changes, and live with the constant risk of medical crisis, help us to support them and their families with PADRE's expert diabetes education and support services.
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!
