DPWC hosted its spring fundraiser benefiting two of its philanthropies, on Saturday March 25th at Community House in Dana Point.
Dana Point Woman’s Club (DPWC) Spring Fundraiser Chair, Joan Marie Kerr, wanted this year’s fashion show to be “fun and fabulous". Saturday’s guests would agree she succeeded on both counts. The “Classy, Sassy, Razzle, Dazzle” event featured complimentary champagne, tray passed hors d’oeuvres, and a three course luncheon catered by Nya Johnson of “An Angel in Your Kitchen”. Guests browsed three vendor booths, beautifully wrapped auction and raffle prizes, and clothing racks curated by Eileen Gerber of Fashions - 4 - Ever. However, “The best part,” according to Ms. Kerr, “is that this event benefited two of our most heartfelt charities - Project Scholarship, funding three $1,000 scholarships to girls graduating from Dana Point High School, and Project Literacy, benefiting the Dana Point Library’s Summer Reading Program for Kids.”
After lunch, guests enjoyed homemade chocolates and lemon tarts while DPWC members and “models", Rita Jones, Angela Vuona-Davis, Robin Torres, Marla Freeman and Toni Nelson walked the runway to the delight and applause of guests.
According to Ways & Means Chair, Marla Freeman, “the best part of this event is that it involved so many of our members. They attended our fundraiser; donated and solicited raffle and auction prizes and wrapped them beautifully; made homemade appetizers and desserts; designed floral arrangements, table settings and decor; acted as models; helped serve lunch and even stayed to clean up! It’s working together that builds camaraderie and lasting friendships. I’m so proud of our Club for working together to host another “fun and fabulous” event."
