The Student Merchandising & Design Association’s Fashion for Life raised $1000 at November’s show which featured the senior collections of 14 University of Alabama apparel design students. Proceeds from the annual fashion show go to a charity of the students’ choice. This year, students selected METAvivor in support of one of their fellow designers, Madison Quattlebaum, whose mom has been diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer. METAvivor Research and Support, Inc. is a volunteer-led, non-profit organization that uses 100% of donations to fund stage 4 metastatic breast cancer research.
