2014 Fashion for Paws® Runway Show | Omni Shoreham Hotel | Washington, D.C.
The Fashion for Paws® Runway Show is a nationally acclaimed one-of-a-kind luxury brand event to benefit the Washington Humane Society! The heart and soul of the event are the fundraising models who agree to raise a minimum of $5,000 in just ten weeks leading up to the event by participating in a friendly fundraising competition. The top fundraiser, winning "Model Washingtonian of the Year," and the first and second runner up will be recognized on the runway.

In just its first 7 years, the Fashion for Paws® Runway Show has been a great success, selling upwards of 1,700 tickets each year, raising nearly $3 million for WHS and generating a significant amount of national and regional media coverage.
