Show Your Passion! Start a Fashion Club at Your High School!

Hello Fashionable Friends! As the moderator of the FIDM Sponsored MySpace Pages, I encounter a lot of young students who dream of attending FIDM one day. I too was a dreamer. From the first moment that I learned that FIDM existed, I had an unquenchable desire to be a part of something so special. Many of you have similar dreams and goals... To become a world renowned fashion designer, to be the most sought after celebrity stylist, to own your own boutique, to be a buyer, or a graphic designer. With FIDM, the possibilities are endless! But many of you may be wondering, how do I get started??

When looking to accept potential students, one of the main qualities that Admissions look for is passion. The instructors can teach you how to sew, draft, and sketch, but no one can be taught the fervent need to be a part of the fashion or entertainment industries. That's why we at FIDM are starting the "Show Your Passion" Campaign! We want each and every one of you to proclaim your passion to the world by getting involved, now!

Celebrate and shout your passion out loud by Starting a High School FIDM Fashion Club! FIDM sponsors High School Fashion Clubs across the country and extends extra special perks to it's members and chapter leaders. Starting a My FIDM Fashion Club is an amazing way to get involved with FIDM while you're still in High School! Once approved, you'll even receive a FREE promotional Fashion Club Kit!

PLUS,

• IMPRESS THE BEST - Starting a My FIDM Fashion Club looks absolutely amazing on your college applications!
• WIN FREEBIES - You become eligible to enter exclusive member-only contests with great prizes, such as sewing machines, sketch books, fashion magazine subscriptions, super cute DIY books, iTunes gift cards, FIDM merchandise, beauty products, and so, so much more!
• BECOME A V.I.P. - Gain access to the exclusive MyClub Blog, chock full of fab tips on expanding your club, raising funds, and super fun ways to get involved with your community!
• NETWORK - Read about and connect with other High School FIDM Fashion Clubs across the country! Share, make new friends, and learn what other My FIDM Fashion Clubs are up to!
• WIN SCHOLARSHIPS TO ATTEND FIDM - As if there weren't enough reasons to join our "Show Your Passion" Campaign, here is the cherry on top... As a club member, you are eligible for ultra-exclusive scholarship opportunities not available to anyone else! Don't believe me? Just ask Alfredo Ramos, this year's Junior Scholarship Winner of One Free Year of Tuition to FIDM! That's a $22,000 value!

Best of all, starting a High School FIDM Fashion Club is super simple! (Btw, if your school already has a fashion club, don't worry, we can help you convert it into a FIDM Fashion Club!) Starting a My FIDM Fashion Club only takes 5 easy steps... Get started here by downloading, completing, and submitting your Club Business Plan and your School Administration Approval Form. (For help with any form, simply email Denice at dcantu@fidm.com) Once completed, you'll be one step closer to having your very own FIDM Fashion Club!

Don't delay! Our "Show Your Passion" Campaign begins today and we want you to be a part of it! Once your brand new High School FIDM Fashion Club is approved, we want to hear from you! Send us an e-mail to FIDMPublicationSF@yahoo.com or leave us a comment telling us about your new FIDM Fashion Club! Tell us about yourself, why you started the club, where you started the club, and what you are most looking forward to about having your very own High School FIDM Fashion Club! We will be featuring new clubs on our FashionClub.com Daily Blog as well as ALL of our MySpace Pages!
