My Project

Support Our Future & Empower Survivors: My Sister’s Keeper Fashion Show & Community Closet Donation Campaign

At our High School, My Sister’s Keeper is more than just a female empowerment group—we are a sisterhood dedicated to uplifting one another and creating real change in our community.

This year, we are proud to host a Fashion Show & Donation Campaign to support domestic violence survivors while also building a community closet for students in need.

Imagine being a student who dreams of attending prom, an awards ceremony, or even braving the winter with a warm coat—but not having the means to do so. No one should have to choose between confidence and financial hardship. Through our Community Closet, we will provide formal wear, prom dresses, jackets, and essential toiletries to ensure that every student, regardless of their circumstances, has access to the clothing and resources they deserve.

Help our students gain essential leadership and project management skills as they launch an entirely student-led full school fundraiser. Your donation can do more than just create closet or decorate a gymnasium—it can restore dignity, hope, and confidence to someone who needs it most. Whether it’s a gently loved gown, a warm winter coat, or a toiletry set, every item helps break barriers and build a stronger, more compassionate school community.

Join us in making a difference. Support our Fashion Show & Community Closet—because empowerment starts with access, and together, we can ensure no one is left behind.

Donate today and help us turn fashion into a force for good.
