Dream Kids will launch their new Olive Miracle formula hair care collection at this years “Runway Red” celebrity kids fashion show. The newly developed formula will help parents start their children’s mains on the right path to healthy tresses with a silkening, feather-light formula containing the finest extra virgin olive oil and African herbal extracts used to strengthen and protect. “Dream Kids is truly excited to partner with the 2011 “Runway Red” celebrity kids fashion show. As a brand we believe strongly in the mission of the Show Me The Way Foundation and that every child, no matter the adversity they face in life, has the right to dream”, states Charlene Bastien (National Marketing Director, Strength of Nature Global, LLC).
Set at the acclaimed Fernbank Museum – upon entry guests will fall down a wonderland rabbit hole into a world of strawberry sherbet red carpets, lollipop partitions, gumdrop lined runways, and licorice VIP ropes complete with a Dream Kids VIP & gifting lounge. With former celebrity parent/ child support including Jermaine Dupri, Bow Wow, Big Boi of Outkast, Chilli, Ceelo, Q Parker, DJ Drama, Jadakiss, NFL stars Rod Gardner and Keion Carpenter and more. This year’s show will infuse some of the most recognized faces and influencers to rally support in fighting an epidemic that effects millions of people every day. Statistics show that Georgia is the ninth state in pediatric AIDS cases in the U.S with the fifth highest rate of AIDS cases per 100,000 population for cases reported in 2001.Out of over 500 AIDS organizations in Georgia, there are only 13 that focus on children with HIV/AIDS. “Foundations such as Show Me the Way are unique and special because a cumulative total of 14 million children in the world have lost their mothers or both parents to AIDS (UNAIDS) and we focus many of our efforts on serving this specific demographic.”, states Show Me The Way Foundation president/founder Tashawnya Menefee.
“Runway RED” will be as entertaining as informing as guests will enjoy learning about the Show Me The Way Foundation’s HIV/AIDS initiatives while viewing exclusive fall and winter Back to School collections from Macy’s and high-end fashion designers from all over the world including: Jack & Jill, Sean John for Kids, Rock and Republic, Lil Miss Muffet, Burberry for Kids, Paige Denim, Tommy Hilfiger, and Bo Peep Kids.
