Reach for the Stars™: Starlette in the Community
Here at Tendeza Moda™, we believe that we live our best life when we have the confidence to just be ourselves. But in today’s rapidly changing world, people of all ages are faced with more challenges than ever to living their dreams.
Through our Reach for the Stars™ program, we partner with community-based, not-for-profit organizations – primarily in the areas of education, healthcare, overcoming poverty, and achieving liberty and equality – to aid them in their missions of helping people reach their potential and live their best lives – whether they are aspiring to greatness, on the road to recovery, or taking the first courageous steps of a new beginning.
