HUMAN INTONATION® Celebrates 5 Year Anniversary with Fashion Show Fundraiser

NEW YORK - Aug. 6, 2013 - PRLog -- (NEW YORK, August 5, 2013) – Premium, unisex apparel brand, Human Intonation, celebrates five years of raising awareness for social and human rights issues with "For the Love of Life: HUMAN INTONATION”, a fashion presentation and fundraiser to promote HIV/AIDS prevention, testing, and treatment, on Monday, August 19 at 7 p.m.

The fundraiser will include an unveiling of Human Intonation’s newest apparel collection of original tees, tank tops, and dresses made from 100% organic cotton and environmentally sustainable fabrics. In addition, there will be a pop-up store showcasing pieces from Human Intonation’s previous collections. Over the last five years, Human Intonation has used fashion as a platform for social change to drive youth and minority HIV/AIDS prevention, efforts to revitalize New Orleans post-Hurricane Katrina, educating children in Darfur, and to uplift the citizens of Haiti. The brand’s non-profit partners include Advocates for Youth, Hands On New Orleans (http://www.handsonneworleans.org/), and the Darfur Peace & Development Organization.

Verneda Adele White, Human Intonation’s Founder & Creative Director, has evolved the charity-driven brand from “a single vision of using fashion to raise awareness, into a national platform of apparel, events, programs and workshops, speaking engagements, writing, and more.” Recently, she became a blog writer for the Huffington Post and received the Daily Points of Light Award from former President George H. W. Bush.

Fifty percent of the evening’s proceeds will be donated to Human Intonation’s non-profit partner in the fight against HIV/AIDS, Advocates for Youth (http://www.advocatesforyouth.org/). Brooklyn Knows, an initiative of the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, will facilitate free onsite HIV testing. Tickets and donations are $25 for general admission and $50 and above for VIP seating via http://loveoflifehumanintonation.eventbrite.com.
