Have you ever wanted to be in one of these photos – you know, the one where someone hands you a check the size of a mini-billboard with your name on the, “Pay to the Order Of” line? We (HM and our sponsors, House of Sherell and Sherell Ra Sha Inc) took the first step this month.
You’ve heard it’s better to give than receive… well, we’re paying it forward. Sherell Ra Sha Inc Founder, CEO, Deborah Morris and recent HM MODEL Kona Lumeh participated in a Leadership course project at the Des Moines Area Community College, where they are both students in the Fashion Design & Marketing Management program.
Their project benefiting Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Iowa was the kickoff effort for our December fundraising gala. If you missed the first part, you can still be participate in the second inning!
