On March 27, 2004, Altrusa hosted its
13th Annual Fashion Show and Luncheon at Rio Pinar Country Club.
Dress Barn provided the fashions that were modeled by Altrusa
members. Hairstyles for the models were provided by Altrusans
Barbara Brown and Doug Adams of Studio V. Many businesses and
individuals contributed goods, funds and services for the silent auction
and door prizes.
The event was a tremendous
success. A donation in the amount of $4,675.00 was presented at our
June meeting to the Children's Advocacy Center. The Children's
Advocacy Center evaluates and treats nearly 5,000 children each year
for the most serious forms of child abuse--sexual abuse, broken bones, and
burns.
