About Chance For Change
About Chance 4 Change
Welcome to the 8th installment of our Chance for Change Fashion Show. Over the past decade, we have been committed to providing a transformative experience for the youth in our communities. This event is not just a fashion show; it is a culmination of all the elements coming together to inspire our youth and show them the bigger picture.
During the show, our youth have the opportunity to witness businesses uniting for a common cause. They interact with business owners, mentors, and coaches who offer valuable insights on transitioning into adulthood and achieving work-life balance.
Participants receive training in various fields such as radio, podcasting, and event coordination. We also ensure that our youth are well-fed everytime we see them. Additionally, participants have the chance to earn money by selling tickets and retaining 50% of their sales. This not only allows them to generate income but also teaches them valuable marketing skills and helps them establish their own community.
Furthermore, participants receive instruction in social media marketing, professional headshots, and content creation for their social media platforms.
Our fashion show is designed to empower individuals and educate them, and for the past decade, we have successfully achieved this goal.

Last year, our Chance For Change Fashion Experience drew nearly 300 guests, the 300 figure does not include models, participants, other vendors, sponsors, and coaches who were part of our event last year.

Each vendor will also receive a personalized flyer to help promote their presence at the event. Since vendors will be located outside, clients will not need an admission ticket to shop, so we encourage vendors to take advantage of this opportunity to promote their products.

Our Story
Not all stories have the same beginning, middle, or
end, but that's what makes each story unique. Our
Company represents the the struggles of the ghetto,
for every black and brown child in the world. It was
created to open the minds of young children. We want
them to understand that not everyone has to walk in
the same line, at the same time. So sometimes you
have to take a chance and choose your own path, to
allow others to see your greatness!
