YWCA’s “Open Your Purse” sponsored by Belk
An evening of guilt-free shopping at its
finest! The 8th annual Open
Your Purse event raises funds and awareness for the YWCA’s Women in Transition and
Supportive Housing program.
The event will showcase hundreds of handbags
donated by Belk, boutiques and high- profile individuals. Attendees can
purchase the handbags, and more, during the silent and live auctions.
Each year the event recognizes a graduate of
the YWCA’s Women in Transition program with the Power of the Purse
Award.
The honoree is an exceptional woman who has completed the 18-month supportive
housing program and has overcome incredible odds to achieve success for herself
and her family.
