Fashion Show 2024

On Saturday, May 11, 2024, at the Hyatt Regency Resort in Huntington Beach, we will host our 33rd Annual Fashion Show Gala. The Fashion Show will feature our children and teens performing in an empowering event that celebrates imagination, strength, creativity, resilience, and the wonders of childhood, reflecting our theme "Fun in the Sun."  

Throughout the night, participants will showcase that even with Type 1 they can still find the fun in life, despite the daily obstacles they may face. Each model will also be displaying the latest fashions on the runway, compliments of Macy’s.

We invite you to join efforts with us as a sponsor of our 2024 Fashion Show Gala, our major fundraising event, which generates two-thirds of the income needed for the PADRE Foundation education and support programs. 

Together we can inspire kids to lead AMAZING lives until a cure for Type 1 diabetes is found!
Help us keep childhood special for the children ​of PADRE and enjoy "Fun in the Sun" with Type 1.
