2023 has marked a new achievement for MAI We Care! We joined Runway of Dreams Foundation’s efforts to give people with disabilities access to fashion inclusion.
Active College Club Participation
On March 2023, for the first time, MAI We Care participated on The Adaptive Exhibit led by Runway of Dreams Club at Marist College in New York @runwayofdreamsmarist. During this exhibit, we shared the floor with fashion adaptive apparel brands and dressed talented models with disabilities for a powerful, stylish & revolutionary exhibit! The Adaptive Exhibit at Marist College was a total success! This participation led us to be part of many other college exhibits and adaptive fashion shows, including @runwayofdreamsduke, @ksurunwayofdreams, @runwayofdreamsumich, @runwayofdreams.udel among others.
All these college clubs, hosted by Runway of Dreams, showcased on their runways adaptive fashion from a variety of different companies and brands from around the world, including Zappos Adaptive (zappos.com & @zappos), No Limbits (no-limbits.com), One Leg Up (onelegupbrand.com) and a collection of small adaptive brands. All with the same mission: to empower people with disabilities through fashion inclusion.
