Runway to Confidence 2026

Runway to Confidence 2026 is more than a fundraising campaign it’s a movement to empower youth with autism through mentorship, fashion, and confidence-building experiences.

In April 2026, Fashion Honors Autism will host our immersive 3-day workshops at Kingdom Studios (April 10–12), pairing youth with dedicated model mentors to develop communication skills, emotional regulation, leadership qualities, and self-belief in a structured, supportive environment.

These workshops culminate in our Annual Black-Tie Charity Fashion Show this July, where youth step onto the runway in front of their families, friends, and the Kansas City community celebrating their growth, confidence, and accomplishments.

Your donation helps fund:
• Workshop materials and curriculum
• Professional photography by Alex Todd
• Venue and production costs
• Sensory-conscious and inclusive experiences
• Youth recognition and runway celebration

Every dollar builds confidence.
Every gift fuels empowerment.
Every partner becomes part of a life-changing experience.

Together, we’re not just hosting a fashion show, we’re creating a stage where confidence is born.
