“For nearly 30 years, has helped bring the magic of the Fresh Start Annual Gala to life. Since 1996, their creativity & unwavering support have helped elevate this signature event into an inspiring celebration of impact, philanthropy, & empowerment.
Through their artistry, and in collaboration with other valued partners, Leidan Mitchell has helped transform the Gala runway into a stunning showcase of fashion, beauty, & confidence, creating an extraordinary evening that fuels life-changing programs for women & families across the Valley.
This year, as Fresh Start celebrated the 30th anniversary of Gala, the event reached a new record for funding raised: $3.5M, made possible in part through the enduring partnership of supporters like Leidan Mitchell.
From the Fresh Start’s creation in 1992, Leidan Mitchell co-founders Jacki Tatman & Erin Essert have been visionary champions of our mission, lending their extraordinary talent, heart, & steadfast commitment to support women on their journeys to self-sufficiency.
Alongside Artistic Directors Heather Gray & Julia Hernandez, whose creativity, leadership, & artistry have helped shape our beloved runway show for many years, their teams-together with the Leidan Mitchell ownership group-have provided the technical expertise behind each designer showcase.
Working with other creative collaborators, they have helped feature iconic collections, including Carolina Herrera most recently & other renowned designers in years past, strengthening Fresh Start’s most impactful fundraiser year after year.

Beyond the glamour of the runway, Leidan Mitchell’s generosity continues to shine. Their team has provided countless hours of pro bono styling support not only for runway models, but also for courageous Fresh Start women sharing their stories on stage & throughout key milestones in their life. Leidan Mitchell has truly helped rebuild self-esteem & confidence when it matters most!”
