Children's Hospital
The American Girl Fashion Show®
Sponsorship Opportunities
The American Girl® brand celebrates a girl's inner star - that little whisper that encourages her to stand tall, reach high and dream big. We take pride and care in helping girls become their very best today so they will grow up to be the women who make a difference tomorrow. Cool Kids Campaign and University of Maryland Medical System Foundation is proud to partner with American Girl Programs® , Inc., to present the American Girl Fashion Show® to raise awareness and money to support our children's programs.
The American Girl Fashion Show® includes an interactive and stylish showcase of historical and contemporary fashions by American Girl®, raffles, fun take-home treasures and much more. The event attracts a family-oriented audience that includes thousands of young girls and their family members.
Your support is not only vital for these worthwhile children's charities, but also a great opportunity for your company to gain recognition and positive exposure in association with the American Girl Fashion Show®, University of Maryland Medical System Foundation, Cool Kids Campaign, and University of Maryland Children's Hospital.
