The Annual New York Style Fashion Show is produced by Cloud 9 Salon and Spa every year, and we need your help.
In 2003, the inaugural event raised $13,000 for PediPlace. Over the years, we've added 3 charities, and our goal for 2008 is $100,000. Our growth and success is made possible with the help of our community supporters and sponsors.
The following charities have benefited from past Fashion Shows:
This not-for-profit pediatric clinic in Lewisville, provides a broad scope of health services with a highly competent staff of medical professional along with many dedicated volunteers. The PediPlace mission is to provide highly quality health care for children in Denton County who have no access to health care due to economic geographic and cultural barriers. No child is turned away. In 2006, PediPlace provided 23,000 individual office visits for 6,000 children.
Every year for over 25 years, Fred Placke and his wife, Caren, along with many individuals and businesses in our community, provide holiday gifts for the boys and girls of New Horizons. New Horizons is a multi-service, nonprofit agency that provides an integrated system of care and services for children, youth and families that is relationship driven and clinically enhanced. New Horizons restores hope to battered spirits, teaches children to face personal challenges as they strive to live successfully in a family and community, and returns children to a safe an supportive environment where they can continue to heal and grow.
With a mission to promote consumer awareness of unsafe service employment. The Sue Weaver CAUSE was founded in 2003 by Lucia Bone, a resident of Highland Village. Sue Weaver as raped and murdered by a convicted felon who had previously come into her Florida home to clean her air ducts.Weaver and many women have become victims because effective background checks have not been done on service employees. Through increased awareness and education, women and their families can be safe.
In 2008, we have added the Children's Advocacy Center for Denton County.
In 1996, the year prior to the opening of CACDC, 84 criminal cases were filed in Denton County against adults who had severely abused children. That year, only 8 of them were convicted and held accountable, resulting in minimal justice for those children and very little healing. CACDC began operations in 1997 with the goal of providing justice and healing for abused children in Denton County by collaborating the efforts of law enforcement, the District Attorney’s office, medical professionals, Child Protective Services and mental health professionals. In 2007, the conviction rate for those who committed crimes against children in Denton County was 76%.
