Fashion Fights Cancer

The fashion industry has helped many charities and has been very generous with those in need around the world. On December 10, in New York City's KITCHN at The Out Hotel, Fashion Fights Cancer (FFC) will be hosting their annual benefit. The benefit will help raise funds for their fashion and design therapy for cancer patients.

They are known for mission which is, "to nurture the mind, bodies and souls of cancer patients and survivors through fashion and design oriented activities. FFC is a non-profit organization that galvanizes the support of New York City and the international fashion community to raise awareness and funds for cancer research. The organization executes various initiatives including therapeutic programs, health symposiums, e-tail and retail partnerships, special events, and fundraisers to execute our mission. Fashion Fights Cancer engages the Medical and Fashion communities to help combat this disease".


 


Isn't it such a noble cause? I love the concept of using fashion and design as part of the healing process.I was invited to attend the wonderful l event, however, I won't be able to attend. I do encourage those who are in the area to please attend and let others aware about this non-profit organization and their work.
