The Tampa Bay Rays will host a charity fashion show pairing 15 dream children with players. It’s a fundraising event.
Things kick off with a social hour that brings light bites and cocktails, per I Love the Burg. Then players, their significant others, and dream children hit the runway wearing clothes from Tampa Bay area retailers.
The show takes cues from vintage Hollywood elegance, though more than 150 children sit on the waiting list hoping their dreams might come true through this program.
Money raised will help the growing number of children who wait for their dream experiences. Attendees can chip in during the evening.
This fashion show stands as the organization’s most anticipated fundraising event each year, with each of the 15 dream children walking beside a player.
The program serves children who face serious medical conditions. The evening works to raise funds so children on the waiting list can receive their dreams.
Local retailers donated their time and merchandise to dress the participants, and the runway presentations will display different styles from these businesses.
