Zareinu Fashion Show 2009 - ROM (November 17, 2009)
|
This is why renowned names from the Canadian fashion world didn’t hesitate when asked to participate in this year’s show. “It’s a beautiful event for an incredibly important cause,” says Ms. Shepherd, whose line, NADA, is available across Canada and the US. “We show at Fashion Week and it’s commercial, it’s for sales. So it’s nice to do a show without the industry stuff and baggage associated with it. Hopefully through this event we can raise awareness and some funds for the organization.”

To date the Sixth Annual Zareinu Fashion Show has raised $200,000 to support the organization and its programs. “One in five children have some kind of special need,” says Randy E. Spiegel, Executive Director of Zareinu. “The emotional, physical and financial challenges are astronomical for many of these families and can lead to stress, hopelessness, and sometimes, marital troubles. Zareinu is more than a school or therapy centre, it’s a community support system, empowering parents and children to make what they once thought impossible, a reality.” THIEN LE COLLECTION
