On November 14th, Advent of Style, a glitzy, glamorous fashion show will be held in the beautiful Blessed Sacrament Church on Fourth Avenue to raise funds for two very special causes. Never has a fashion show been held in a church of this presence let alone any church so it promises to be breathtaking. Complete with fabulous fashions from Shepherd’s and Harry Rosen, a 12 member gospel choir and a live auction, this event will hopefully raise around $40,000 for both organizations.
The first outreach program is the Parkway House in the west end which provides supportive independent living to adults with cerebral palsy and other physical disabilities. Without it, these adults would have no safe and secure place to live. This home has been in existence for over 28 years housing 12 adults on a full time basis and receiving no funding from the government. Their resources all come from fundraisers like ours. More information on this home and its activities can been viewed by googling “Parkway House in Ottawa”.
Another worthwhile cause is the Youville Centre, which motivates, educates and nurtures young single mothers and their children. This incredible organization also relies on efforts like ours to help them out and it is our pleasure to include it in our fundraiser.
Tickets at $65 include the fashion show, auction, choir and desert and coffee in the church hall.
For details and tickets please call Linda King @ 260-7897 or linda@lindaking.com.
