Now, some of y’all know about my obsession with Project Runway and fashion, so while this isn’t *exactly* the same (damn if I’m not still quite lost to the Bay Area everything organic including your underwear and some sh*t phenomena–this event is gonna crack. me. up.), you know I couldn’t turn my girl Heidi down from working the runway. (Winig, not Klum, but don’t you love the synchronicity!)
So come out and watch me work the runway along with a whole host of fabulous change-makers in the Bay Area at Rags to Righteousness: From the Red Sea to the Red Carpet, including:
Rae Abileah, National Grassroots Coordinator for CODEPINK
Sarah Leiber Church, Bay Area Program Director for Progressive Jewish Alliance
Laura Klivans , AJWS alum
Cole Krawitz, Founder of JVoices
Dave Lichtman, AJWS Bay Area Connector
Ariel Vegosen, Representative of Dr. Bronner’s Fair Trade Company
Zach Wasserman, leader in Jewish Youth for Community Action (JYCA)
Julie Wolk, Organizer for Rainforest Action Network
and
Isaac Zones, musician and founder of Moishe House in San Francisco, (as well as co-founding and directing the program internationally) along with residents of Moishe House Ari, Dave, Joie and Maya.
