Dream Dress Auction
Sunday May 31, 2009
TELUS House 768 Seymour St, Vancouver
Doors open at 12:30 pm
$15 online and $20 at the door.
25 new wedding gowns will be auctioned off starting at $100 (size 2-14), as well bid on various other silent auction prizes.
All proceeds go to the Cinderella Project: a federally registered, 100% volunteer-based charity founded in Vancouver, B.C. in 1999.
The Cinderella Project works to remove social barriers and promote inclusiveness and diversity. The charity recognizes outstanding young people who have succeeded in the face of overwhelming odds and boost their confidence and self esteem through respect and positive mentorship. Nearly half of all Cinderella’s and Cinderfella’s are chronically ill or physically or developmentally disabled. More than two-thirds of those students who are physically able to work juggle multiple jobs before and after school to help support their families. Many are caring for ailing parents or raising younger siblings with little support. Most have never had a childhood.
