FASHiONS FOR A CURE HISTORY

 

Fashions For A Cure was started in 2005 by Hannah Webb and her family—husband Richard and children Genea & Eric-- as a way for the family to pay homage to Hannah’s sister, Dorothea “Dot” Nelson, and Richard’s mother, Ruth Webb, who both contracted and passed away from breast cancer.

 

The show centers around a fashion show with clothing supplied by Selections by Genea & Eric, a one-of-a kind clothing boutique owned by Hannah. Selections by Genea & Eric is located at 534 Miller Avenue in Clairton and sales clothing, hats and accessories for women and men.

 

Selections by Genea & Eric has been a staple in the Clairton business district since 1994. Hannah and her family travel  the world to bring unique items home for her customers to purchase.

 

Selections by Genea & Eric is open Wednesdays through Saturdays from 12:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. Feel free to drop by during business hours or call (412) 233-7242.

Many of the models who participate in Fashions For A Cure are Selections by Genea & Eric customers who believe in the mission of the show.

 

Partial proceeds from Fashions For A Cure are given to UPMC Hillman Cancer Center’s Patience Assistance Fund—West Mifflin Branch.

That fund helps cancer patients who have no or limited insurance help ease the financial burdens that come with receiving a cancer diagnosis.

 

To date, Fashions For A Cure has helped numerous families with care including food, medical expenses and transportation.

In 2006, a year after Fashions For A Cure was created, Hannah was diagnosed with stage- one breast cancer herself.

She received her life-saving cancer treatment from the West Mifflin Branch and was treated like a bar of gold during her ordeal and felt that was the perfect place to help.

In 2007, Richard was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma, a blood-borne bone cancer.

Still, the family carried on with Fashions For A Cure, broadening its mission to

 not only include breast cancer, but any cancer that someone may be suffering from.

“We thought that the West Mifflin branch could use the money we raise for anything they needed to help fight cancer,” Hannah said.
