We’re Still Glowing from the Runway!

A huge thank you to Kent Smith Photography for choosing Buddy Up for Life as the beneficiary of FASHIONFEST 2025—a stunning evening of fashion, confidence, and inclusion. Outfitted in looks from Abercrombie & Fitch, Buckle, Luxe Levels, and more, our Students and Athletes had the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to take the stage in style, strutting their stuff with joy, personality, and pride.

Events like this create more than just magical memories—they spotlight the value of belonging, representation, and the power of community partnerships. We are deeply grateful to the entire Kent Smith Photography team for believing in our mission and giving our Participants this unforgettable platform.
