WEModel USA: Stop the Traffick & Walk the Runway
Join us at MGM National Harbor Hotel & Casino for an extraordinary evening of fashion and purpose. “Stop the Traffick & Walk the Runway” is more than a fashion show—it’s a movement. This event combines style, creativity, and activism to raise awareness and funds to combat human trafficking.
This event will take place on 08 December 2024 and will be hosted by none other than NFL Superbowl Champion and Community Change Agent – Kyle Arrington and Emmy-Nominated Host and Reporter with Fox 5 News – Erin Como. WEMODEL USA intends to use this platform to fuse fashion and philanthropy, raising funds and awareness for the fight against human trafficking and giving back to those in need.
WEModel USA has worked diligently since its inception to create a Sisterhood within the DMV communities. Now, we plan to integrate that coalition of women with anti-trafficking organizations in Africa, establishing an intercontinental partnership to protect our girls. On December 8th, we will formally celebrate this collaborative effort with a high-fashion, runway presentation from a top-end designer, showcasing their latest collections, with models strutting the stage to represent empowerment, resilience, and freedom. A portion of the proceeds from the event will go directly towards supporting these anti-trafficking organizations working on the front lines.
