Our Mission
To bring communities together to support inclusion through change, visibility, and education. We are stepping forth to present beliefs that involve loving everyone in society, equally, despite their gender identity.
Why are we doing this event?
We’re raising money through a runway fashion event that will support LGBTQ+ communities, minorities, and all others whose confidence and self-esteem have been stripped away. We would like to bring more awareness to the fact that suicide is a significant problem for the transgender community.
The prevalence of suicide attempts among respondents to the National Transgender Discrimination Survey (NTDS), conducted by the National Center for Transgender Equality, is 41 percent [in 2017], which exceeds the 4.6 percent of the overall U.S. population who report a lifetime suicide attempt, and is also higher than the 10-20 percent of lesbian, gay and bisexual adults who report ever attempting suicide.
We are doing this event because of this horrific statistics like. We want to send the message that every life matters and there are supportive places in the community to be your authentic self.

What we are doing?
Many organizations are working to ensure that LGBTQ+ people can live openly without discrimination and enjoy equal rights, personal autonomy and freedom of expression and association. Unfortunately, there is lack of support for transgender people. The goal of this event is to raise awareness and educate the public.
This unique fashion will empower some transgender individuals to live out their dream to be a BRIDE, by wearing a wedding dress that speaks to their gender expression.
