Bra Couture KC’s annual event is a unique and fun auction showcasing eclectic work-of-art bras modeled by breast cancer survivors to celebrate their triumph over cancer. It’s not about the bra—it’s about the bravado to walk a 92-foot runway and the survival journey that is represents. From shaken to surety; from fearful to fierce; from unsure to unflappable—a million-dollar feeling. The event raises funds for uninsured/underinsured cancer patients in the greater Kansas City area who cannot pay for their cancer supplies such as cancer medication, transportation to treatment, prosthetics, wigs, surgical supplies and lymphedema garments. Serving men, women & children touched by all cancers. IN Kansas City is a sponsor.
