For those following along on the planning of the 2016 event, here’s a brief update . . .
A couple weeks back, we picked up from Bridals By Jodi and The Trunk Show – two of our annual donors. The dresses and shoes barely fit in the SUV!
Last week we picked up from the Zetas at the College of Charleston. Seriously, this group of young ladies is incredible. They’ve been supporting our project for years now. Not only did they donate dresses, shoes, and jewelry, but they collected over $100 in donations to our project.
This evening, we picked up from Cosign Charleston. Here’s just a sampling of the dozens of dresses.
It’s hard to tell from the photo, but we will have all kinds of dresses – long, short, beaded, sequence, satin, lace, silk . . . you name it, we’ll have it!
We also picked up our volunteer tee shirts from The Cotton Exchange. They’ve been generous to donate our volunteer tee shirts for the past several years. Check them out if you need any personalized merchandise. Here’s a photo of what the tee shirts look like (we reuse the same design every year to repeat volunteers can re-wear their shirts!)
The back of the shirt has “VOLUNTEER” written across the shoulders. This is a great way for everyone to know who’s “working” the event vs. who’s there shopping!
So we set up John Wesley United Methodist Church tomorrow, Friday, March 11 and transform the auditorium into the Cinderella “boutique”!
Here is a photo of what the auditorium looks like . . .
I’ll post an “After” shot tomorrow, but here’s what we were able to do last year . . .
Can’t wait to see how it looks tomorrow!
