Community Comes Together for First Annual Styles & Smiles Breast Cancer Charity Event

submitted by Donna Bramante InDelicato

After months of preparation and effort by Team BellaDonna and

Windham High School students, Styles & Smiles Fashion Show and Raffle will open its doors to the public on Sunday, April 11, at 1:30 p.m. Little fashionistas to stylish seniors will be treated to an exciting afternoon featuring styles from area clothing stores. Reflecting a community-wide effort, Styles & Smiles models reach across the ages, as students and staff, local women’s group representatives, and area children stride across the stage to show off spring and summer styles for men, women, and children. Hair designs and makeup by award-winning local spas will transform models, several of whom have been directly impacted by breast cancer, from ordinary to extraordinary.

In addition to the fashion promenade, Styles & Smiles patrons will be treated to exciting live dance by Londonderry Dance Academy, a student-produced short film, and music by a Windham High ensemble. A comic “Pink Project Runway” competition, judged by area “celebrities,” will challenge pairs of audience volunteers to create outfits from miscellaneous materials and present them to the audience mid-way through the show. Delicious refreshments will be offered during intermission. Dozens of raffle items will be available. The event will close with dramatic prom and formal fashions, a “survivor” segment, words from the Avon Foundation, and raffle prize drawings. It has been a year of firsts at the newly launched Windham High School, but both students and teachers have risen to the

many challenges of beginning high school programs from scratch. A major focus at the school has been community service. Leading the charge to develop globally responsible students have been the Windham High School S.M.I.L.E.S Club and the Windham High Student Council. Local breast cancer support organization, Team BellaDonna, has collaborated with these groups to produce the “Styles & Smiles” cancer fundraiser and awareness event. The event has been a win for all involved, with students gaining the confidence that comes with successfully planning a multi- faceted event, and many becoming empowered to take action against cancer. Since the first “Styles & Smiles” event meeting in December, the fashion and raffle event grew from a single idea to a community-wide effort. Generous donations from area businesses are allowing 100 percent of the proceeds to benefit the Avon Breast Cancer Foundation, a 501(c)3 public charity. The fashion event occurs during a week-long cancer awareness campaign planned by the freshman and sophomore students of Windham High School. Tickets for the Styles & Smiles Breast Cancer Charity Fashion

Show and Raffle are available for purchase. The public is invited to enjoy a spring afternoon out, a chance to socialize, and fabulous entertainment while supporting the breast cancer cause. The curtain rises at 2 p.m., Sunday, April 11, at Windham High School Theatre. For more information, visit www. teambelladonna.weebly.com or call 434-9622.
