Fashion Takes Flight

Modeling the Mission!

A longtime charitable event organized by students at Lexington Catholic High School was paused during the pandemic. This spring, a motivated group of students brought it back with a new vision to support survivors.

Emme Peterson, Grace Tibe, and Molly Johnson visited our emergency shelter to learn more about our mission and share their plan.

An airplane hangar would become the fashion runway. Local boutiques would lend clothing, and students would model.

In the weeks that followed, they prepared the event for takeoff. Boutique partners signed on, and in-kind support from Triton Airways and Lundy’s Special Events was secured.

Students modeled curated looks from local shops, walking the runway to music mixed by a fellow student. Family and friends purchased tickets to gather and cheer them on.

Together, they raised more than $5,000 to support the mission.
