I AM now a Star Model For the Kierrah Foundation Founded by Brandy Sanders about 5 years ago. This Non-Profit organization helps women that come straight out of foster care who have No where to sleep and No one to turn to, get their lives together. The organization has many sponsors, but still is not enough to help assist these girls in NEED. The Kierrah Foundation is able to provide for these women and their children soley from the profits earned from their events. NO Government Assistance, No Food Stamps, only from the support of the community.
As everyone knows, I am a freelance A&R. I manage artist(s) on my own, etc. Well, the other day in my meeting with the Kierrah Star Models, I came up with the idea of having a charity benefit fashion/talent show. This not only gives up and coming artists, muscians, models and fashion designers a chance to showcase what they love to do, but the profits go to a good cause, which are helping these girls and their children: eat, have somewhere to sleep, bus passes, clothing, the opportunities are endless. Everyday we complain about what we don't have, how we're struggling, trying to figure out what outfit to wear or what we're going to eat today, BUT these girls have to deal with wondering where their going to sleep that night, how are they going to feed their children. That's something NO ONE should ever have to think about, but thousands of people deal with it everyday.
So for once, let's come together and think about others and not ourselves. Let's all come together and make this one of the biggest events to date! If all goes well, this can be turned into an event that will be thrown 4 times a year. Need a charity under your belt or charity work on your resume ? HERE'S YOUR CHANCE! I hope you guys come out and support once everything is completely organized and set up. Please, also visit: www.kierrahfoundation.org and REALLY READ to get somewhat of an inside scoop of what these women&children have to deal with EVERYDAY!
Thank You For Listening.
