"I Am" Youth Empowerment Initiative
After 2024 " I AM" Youth Fashion show, we officially update this program to be "I AM" Youth Empowerment Initiative, we will have a series workshop and events to work with youth related to their self confidence, positive body image, positive self affirmation, body posture, runway walk and effective process emotions and many other areas. We will delivery the training with a fashion show at the end of each training program called "I AM" Youth Fashion Show.
The I AM Youth Fashion Show is more than just a showcase of fashion; it's a powerful platform for our young participants to express themselves, build self-confidence, and promote a positive self-image. At United We Go, we believe in the importance of nurturing these qualities in our youth, and this event is a testament to that commitment.
The I AM Youth Fashion Show 2023, organized by United We Go, was a resounding success, bringing together the community in Bay City, Michigan, to celebrate and empower youth. The event took place with the generous support of our main sponsor, My Forever Smile, and contributions from 16 local small businesses, offering in-kind donations and valuable volunteers
