People, regardless of age, never cease to amaze when it comes to taking action for the welfare of people around the globe. We have been increasingly exposed to a variety of international problems throughout our lives and then the people and organizations that make the relief of these problems their goals. Since we were kids, teachers introduced us to the idea of being penpals, then canned food drives, homeless shelters, book donations, bake sales, Relay for Life, and many more until we just realized that what we are capable of doing is anything but endless.
On that note, fashion show for a cause anybody? In response to the earthquake and tsunami that hit Japan over two months ago, students of UCSD's business fraternity, Alpha Kappa Psi (AKPsi), hosted a charity fashion show on May 17th of which all proceeds went to Japan Red Cross. The fraternity teamed up with members from Delta Sigma Pi (also a business fraternity), Circle K, Japanese Student Association, and many other on-campus organizations for this cause. Students were runway-ready as they donned business attire ranging from sophisticated dresses on the ladies to classic dress shirts and tailored pants on the gents. One can call them fashion models, but better yet, models of our world.
