Fashion, Fun & Fundraising: Spring Bling 2026

What an incredible afternoon at Spring Bling 2026! On May 3, more than 200 community members gathered at the Hotel Roanoke to celebrate, connect, and support the mission of West End Center for Youth — and thanks to your generosity, together we raised more than $20,000 to support local youth programs.

Guests enjoyed a delicious brunch, an exciting fashion show, and a large silent auction filled with amazing items and experiences donated by generous community partners and supporters. The energy in the room was inspiring as attendees came together to invest in opportunities for the children and families served by West End Center.

A highlight of the afternoon was the Spring Bling Fashion Show featuring adult fashions from Punch, Run About Sports, and Davidson’s for Men, along with youth fashions for West End Center students provided by Belk. Our student and community models brought confidence, personality, and joy to the runway, making the event truly unforgettable.

This event would not have been possible without the support of so many people and organizations. We extend our heartfelt thanks to our sponsors, volunteers, silent auction donors, in-kind supporters, fashion partners, attendees, and models for helping make Spring Bling 2026 such a success. Your generosity and commitment to our mission continue to make a meaningful difference in the lives of local youth.

For more than 46 years, West End Center has proudly served the Roanoke community, now reaching approximately 150 children each year through academic support, enrichment opportunities, mentorship, and a safe, supportive environment.

We are incredibly grateful to everyone who joined us for this year’s event and helped make it such a memorable celebration of community and impact. We look forward to building on this momentum and continuing to create brighter futures for the youth we serve.

Thank you for being part of Spring Bling 2026!
