We're SO PROUD of you, Alton!
Meet Alton. These photos were taken from New York Fashion Week two weeks ago. If he looks familiar to you, it's probably because you saw him in this post or this one.
Alton just hit one of his "big goals" in life! We met back in November of last year when we delivered shoes to the Volunteers of America shelter in Lancaster, CA, and spent an afternoon with the young men staying there- Alton and his brother Dre were among them. He told me at the time that his goal was to become a model. In just 3 short months, he was strutting down the runway confidently at NYFW! You can imagine the joy and pride I felt when I received a text with these photos of Alton!
If one can go from being homeless to achieving his dream in just 3 months, what else is possible in life?
Congratulations, Alton! You're truly an inspiration to us all!
