With each step down the runway, 27 models proved no challenge is too
great to overcome.

They arrived in Atlantic Beach on Saturday night from across the
country to "redefine the runway." Some were born without an arm or
leg. Others suffered illnesses that forced a limb to be amputated.

What they shared was a common determination, a will to survive and to
show the world that they are just like everyone else.

At the third annual Show Your Shine Adaptive Runway Event at The
Sands, the models, mostly children, were greeted with thunderous
applause as they proudly walked down the runway. The event was a
fundraiser for the Limb Kind Foundation, a Long Island-based
nonprofit organization that supports the amputee community across the
world.
