TAMPA, FL, USA, October 26, 2020 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Miracles Outreach announced today that it will be holding the 8th annual Runaway to the Runway Fashion Show on October 30, 2020. The event will raise funding to improve the lives of abused, at-risk, and exploited youth of Human Trafficking who currently live in the Miracles Outreach housing facilities. It will take place at the Center Club in Tampa, FL. Tickets can be purchased at www.miraclesoutreach.org/runaway-to-runway.

The fashion show is a unique event as it highlights youth who current and former residents of Miracles Outreach housing programs. The event serves as their PROM as many of them had to grow up too quickly and missed out on many rights of passage that most teenagers take for granted. It gives the kids an opportunity to have their hair done, make-up perfected, dress in designer clothes and attend an event where people can support their perseverance.

The theme of this year’s event is “An Evening at the Mask-Querade,” and will incorporate masks that have been decorated by the participants.

Past speakers at event include Jane Castor (Mayor of Tampa), Pam Bondi (Past Florida Attorney General), Ralph Stoddard (Thirteenth Judicial Court Judge), and Noemi Bosques (Three-Time Female World Boxing Champion).

“The children look forward to this event each year,” said Michelle Walker, Executive Director of Miracles Outreach. “It provides current and former residents of our housing program with a fun outlet and a way for people to celebrate their success.”
