SOUTH BEND – Goodwill and U93 will host a “Goodwill Gives” Dress Drive on Saturday, January 31st to benefit Hello Gorgeous at Flourish Boutique in Granger. The Dress Drive will be held from 10:30 am to 1:30 pm in the Centennial Place Shopping Center parking lot to collect gently used fashions for their upcoming Glamour Event in February.
U93 will broadcast live encouraging ladies to donate their special event wear. Wedding gowns, prom dresses, evening wear and accessories will be accepted on-site where the familiar Goodwill truck will be located. Household items and other donations will also be accepted. This Dress Drive will do more than support job training programs and help area fashionistas gain valuable closet space. The “Goodwill Gives” initiative was developed to support local charities. For this event, Hello Gorgeous has been chosen to receive $1,000 from Goodwill as they join our efforts to help Stuff-A-Truck.
Hello Gorgeous is a non-profit organization that provides complimentary professional make-overs to women battling cancer. “We invite you to support Goodwill and Hello Gorgeous by donating your special event wear. Then, stop in at Flourish Boutique and treat yourself to something new. Our community thrives when we partner together for the benefit of others,” comments Debie Coble, President and CEO.
