Eyes were glued to the runway as each local model strutted her stuff in the Charity Runway Fashion Show by representing clothing from the up and coming Runway Boutique, opening early 2009 in El Dorado Hills, Calif.
At Serrano Country Club on Nov. 5, 2008, attendees were able to enjoy an evening consisting of fashion at its finest, plus wine, appetizers and dessert. In efforts to raise awareness for three local charities: Faithful Stewards, The Sam Harry Foundation and Hands for Hope Youth Organization; spokespersons introduced themselves at the beginning of the show and guests brought blankets to distribute to the homeless. Guests also had the opportunity to shop for the cause at the end of the evening to purchase clothing that was modeled in the show. All the proceeds of the event were donated to the above mentioned charities by Robin Bernardoni, owner of Runway Boutique.
Overall the event was a huge success. Everyone left in high spirits and with huge smiles. Runway Boutique accomplished community awareness of these charities and much more.
After the store opening, Runway Boutique hopes to have even more charitable donation events like Charity Shopping Days and represent even more local charities through an application process. Keep your eyes peeled for the grand opening. It’s sure to be a show-stopper!
