The Cause Behind the Runway

 

 

Supporting the NYOH Community Cancer Foundation

NYOH Foundation Logo (2)

Every year, Rock Your Style collaborates with a local nonprofit whose mission is to make a meaningful difference in our community. For 2026, we are proud to support the NYOH Community Cancer Foundation.

The Foundation provides financial assistance and supportive resources to individuals and families facing cancer throughout the Capital Region. From helping cover everyday living expenses to easing the financial burden that often comes with treatment, the Foundation ensures patients can focus on what matters most: healing and recovery.

Every ticket purchased, sponsorship secured, and dollar raised by our models helps make that possible.

Community Supporting Community

The Foundation's work is powered by local generosity and stays right here in our community. Funds raised through Rock Your Style directly support neighbors, friends, coworkers and families throughout the Capital Region who are navigating cancer.

When our community comes together, the impact extends far beyond the runway.

Every ticket purchased, sponsorship secured and dollar raised by our models helps make that possible.

More Than Cancer Care

A cancer diagnosis affects far more than a person's health. It impacts families, careers and financial stability. While treatment focuses on fighting cancer, the NYOH Community Cancer Foundation helps address the everyday challenges that often accompany a diagnosis.

Because of generous community support, patients can receive assistance when they need it most.

Rock Your Style's Impact

 Fashion has the power to inspire, but when paired with generosity, it has the power to change lives. Rock Your Style is a celebration of community, compassion, and hope, and every contribution helps advance the Foundation's mission to support local cancer patients and their families when they need us most.
