Goodwill Industries of Michiana is partnering with Comcast, Adams Radio Group, WIMS-AM, Giving Indiana Magazine and IN City Magazine to raise funds to support their mission to strengthen communities by empowering individuals and families through education, training and job placement.

We’ve also provided over 40,000 volunteer hours in our local communities. Yet, there is so much more that we could do and need to do! So, we invite our friends to attend specialty events like this one, because in doing so they help us expand our mission,” comments Guy Fisher, Vice President of Mission Advancement. Models will walk the runway in clothing from Goodwill showcasing the latest fashion trends while guests enjoy a gourmet lunch. Kathy Friend, nationally known as a stylist and image consultant and President of the Style and Image Institute, will produce and host the program.
