Make a Wish Foundation will be supporting Fossil Ridge High School’s annual Prom Fashion show for Rebekah, a 16 year-old from Johnstown, Colorado who has been struggling with cystic fibrosis. DECA leadership, Lisa Landwehr, Erica Lewis, and Lindsey Swanson are leading the event. The club will be fundraising to help Rebekah fulfill her wish to watch one of  her favorite Broadway musicals, Sweeny Todd. JC Penney, Sephora, Men’s Warehouse, and Cira will be sponsoring the show, providing models with apparel and professional makeup.

To bring more awareness for the show, DECA members have dedicated a “Wish Week” leading up to the event, on March 23. DECA announced the fashion show to students at the basketball game to help create student interest. The audience also partook in a “miracle minute,” donating change in hopes of sending Rebekah to New York. “It’s not only for a good cause,” stated Landwehr “it’s unifies the community and school.”
