Operation Smile Follow Up

LNE Consulting Inc. held its Charity Kids Fashion Show and Art Auction Saturday August 27, 2011. Studio 18 of Pembroke Pines sponsored the location! 

"We raised almost $5000 for Operation Smile that night!" says Julie Edmonds, president of LNE.

More than 200,000 children are born with a severe cleft condition each year — often unable to eat, speak, socialize or smile. In some places these children are shunned and rejected. And in too many cases, their parents can't afford to give them the surgeries they need to live a normal life. Thanks to the generosity and spirit of volunteerism shown by Operations Smile's supporters, Operation Smile heals thousands of children per year and, today, more than 150,000 girls and boys have a new chance at a new life because of Operation Smile's work. 

The doors to Studio 18 opened at 6:00 that evening with all the artists work on hand. The evening began with a fashion show of 16 boys and girls aged 3-7, showcasing designer Sandra Meza's new bathing suit line for children. Makeup professional and hair stylist, Michelle Menist was on set catering to all the little models. The evening followed with artist, William Bock on the mic. William owns the Art and Frame Shop in Davie, Fl and displays his work at Studio 18. He did a fantastic job auctioning off some beautiful pieces donated by the artists from Studio 18.

Throughout the evening, attendees had an opportunity to bet on silent auction items from Harley Davidson, Dynamic Tae Kwon Do, Po Seng Tong, Elemis Spa, a blimp ride from Good Year Tire Company, Grow Verde Vespa Rides, and much much more!

It was a highly successful event! LNE exceeded its goal and is so happy to give back to the community. Studio 18 and everyone there were great supporters.

"We couldn't have done it without all the incredible sponsors and all the talented artists at Studio 18 that donated their work!. Special thanks to Adri Trujillo from LNE, Robyn Vegas from Studio 18, artist William Bock, fashion designer Sandra Meza, make up artist Michelle Menist, Jennifer Salter and all of the team leaders at LNE!" says Julie
