Shortstack™ is a teen driven fashion and modeling program. Its goal is to allow young girls who do not fit the "normal" model standards to be a part of charitable fashion events. For years, girls have been rejected from the modeling industry because they are too short. Shortstack was created by highschool students under the guidance of Windows of Opportunity, Inc. to give these "short" girls a chance at achieving their dreams as models and empower them to love themselves for who they are. Shortstack has created many opportunities for it's youth, such as meeting former America's Next Top Model contestants, Kim Stolz, Bianca Golden and Claire Unabia and being featured in The Bayside Times, The NY Daily News, on the cover and in a 7-page spread of A&U Magazine, and more! Shortstack's 4th Annual Charity Fashion Show is set for June 18th, 2010 at the Midtown Loft & Terrace. Proceeds will be donated to Windows of Opportunity, Inc.'s Youth Development Programs, such as the HIV Empowerment and Leadership Program (HELP), "The Inner You" Program for Eating Disorders, and more. This year, Shortstack is proud to announce that 10% of ALL proceeds will be donated to the Haiti Earthquake victims through the American Red Cross. In our 4th year, 20 girls have been chosen to walk our runway and appear in our photo shoots.
