Who knew strutting around in a tux could bring in so much cash? The annual Corvallis Clinic Coundation “Puttin’ on the Pink Fashion Show” brought in $130,000 for Project H.E.R. this weekend. Yeah. $130K. $130 GRAND. One night.
The gala event included fundraiser staples like a silent auction, nibbles and drinks. But the thing that separates Putting on the Pink is the fashion show. All the models are either cancer survivors or people who are currently undergoing treatment . . . and the pre-show pampering including makeup and hair is a treat much appreciated by the models.
Project H.E.R. helps pair newly diagnosed cancer patients with survivors and offers resources and support to those in need. For more info and a more in-depth recap of the event check out this article in the Gazette Times.
