" Fashion Show " The Teen Board - Coral gables












Attended this great community events in support of these wonderful teen with a purpose and a message -


The “History in the Making” fashion show brought the new members of South Florida’s Teen Board together on the runway with past Teen Board members to tell their stories, showcase local designers’ clothing, serve their community and honor the amazing women who made it all possible.
The event was held at the Westin Colonnade Hotel in Coral Gables on Wednesday evening, July 21. Fashion veterans Hannelore Hill and Sonia Gibson received Lifetime Achievement awards for blazing fashion trails across Miami for the past 30 years. The awards were presented by those whose lives have been impacted by them.
Networking cocktail reception was followed by the fashion shows and awards ceremony.
Teen Board models use their personal experiences to provide an emotional shelter for other teens and younger children in their communities. They do so by creating an alliance with South Florida After School All Stars, which is a local chapter of the leading national organization that provides year-round, school-based, after-school programs, including academics, health and fitness to middle school aged students.
