Make a difference with style at the Brave Wings Fashion Show on Saturday, July 16, at The Vintage 45, from 7 to 11 p.m. The show will benefit The Arizona Burn Foundation, the local organization that supports the quality of life of burn survivors and promotes burn prevention education.

Unlike most injuries, burn injuries leave behind both physical and emotional scaring that can last a lifetime. The Arizona Burn Foundation provides burn survivors and families with crisis care, recovery care and the tools to achieve a thriving lifestyle again. Crisis and recovery care include assisting clients directly after a crisis and with on-going medical needs, emergency financial assistance and referral services along with executing family assessment tools and care plan management prepared with foundation staff. The Arizona Burn Foundation’s thrive component includes client services and providing survivors and families with opportunities to attend social events. Camp Courage is a camp created to address the emotional needs of children who have suffered severe burn injuries. The camp also provides leadership development training and Camp Courage counselor opportunities. The Brave Wings Fashion Show will support the non-profit organization with the funding they need to continue all their amazing work.

The Brave Wings Fashion Show organization was developed by Mabel Cortez, designer of Mabella Chic, and Jenesis Laforcarde, designer of Woman’s Touch Apparel, two women who joined forces to create a fashion show that unites the fashion community in the valley for an amazing cause.

The show will feature unique designers and local businesses selling fabulous goods. The Aveda Institute Phoenix, one of the main sponsors for the event, will be giving four lucky clients of the Arizona Burn Foundation glamorous makeovers, so they will feel extra fabulous for the fashion show.
