CHARLOTTE — A fashion show in Charlotte raised money to provide resources for people living with the challenges from a stroke, epilepsy or another disability.
The Stroke Epilepsy and Disability Foundation, or SEND, helps people with those conditions get access to counseling, rehabilitation programs, and independent living.
The non-profit held its annual fashion show this weekend in west Charlotte.
“We’re all the same. I wish people would understand we may look a little different on the outside but we’re all the same,” said Tae McKenzie, president and CEO of SEND.
Channel 9 Chief Meteorologist John Ahrens served as the event’s emcee.
The fashion show raised more than $1,700, but the organization has a donation page if you’d still like to contribute.
