"I have been a victim of gender-based violence (GBV) and I am asking that we don't judge anyone as just like me and other participants here who are now runway models, many people have been victims, but have been silent about the vice. This is why we are here tonight as Kilifi County Government in partnership with the African Renaissance and Diaspora Network (ARDN) to launch the Red Card campaign through this fashion show," says the moderator.

The campaign, one of its kind in Kenya aims at increasing awareness with the fashion show shining a spotlight on the critical issue of GBV. It seeks to engage the fashion industry and private sector allies committed to fighting the vice and empowering survivors by giving them a platform to showcase their talents and skills.
