03.12.19
In celebration of Childhelp’s 60th anniversary, the Orange County Chapter will host their 33rd Annual Fashion Show and Luncheon at the Fashion Island Hotel in Newport Beach on March 14. The event Co-Chairs, Linda Burns, Patti Edwards, and Tami Smith look forward to an afternoon of friendship, fashion, and fun as they raise funds for the prevention of child abuse and neglect.
Childhelp Founders, Yvonne Fedderson and Sara O’Meara, will be on hand to receive the Inspirational Award for their dedication in helping millions of children across the world. Childhelp Celebrity Ambassador, actress, and singer, Jen Lilley, will receive the Children’s Friend Award.
Guests will be treated to a New York Fashion Week runway-style fashion show presented by South Coast Plaza and featuring the latest fashion trends from the likes of Bally, Escada, Intermix, Lafayette 148, Max Mara, Saks Fifth Avenue, Tadashi Shoji, and Ted Baker London. David Yurman will offer informal modeling of their jewelry. There will also be a raffle offering Opportunity Prizes provided by South Coast Plaza designer boutiques.

It is estimated that over five children die each day from abuse and neglect in the United States, and for nearly six decades, Childhelp has worked to combat this epidemic. Benefitting Childhelp’s California programs and services, Childhelp Orange County has been strengthening families and bringing together a community to support victims of child abuse since 1970.
