Gold Coast Fashion & Fundraising Collide At QLD Flood Appeal Silent Auction

Jan. 27, 2011 - PRLog -- The team at Palm Beach fashion boutique Dot Wear a Dress have been busy the pulling together an impromptu night of fashion and festivities to take place instore Friday 4th February 2011 from 6-8pm in support of a great cause – to assist families displaced by the Queensland floods and raise much needed funds for the Premier’s Flood Appeal. With a silent auction format and guests like Miss Universe Australia, Jesinta Campbell, comedian Ian Wright, and local musician Matt Barker donating their time to entertain guests, the evening is sure to pull a sizable crowd. The event is open to the public, and entry is $5 donation at the door. All proceeds from the evening will be divided between the QLD Premier’s Flood Appeal and a direct donation to a family affected by the tragedy, with guests on the evening determining how they’d like their fundraising efforts divided between the two.

Sharon Fletcher and Mandy Bell from Dot Wears a Dress are excited about the prospects of helping fellow Queenslanders in their time of need. “We love organizing fun events in store, but with such a serious tragedy happening so close to us, we wanted to use our resources to encourage local businesses to rally together to support victims of the floods.
 
“We are hoping to raise funds for the Premier’s Flood Appeal, but we are also giving guests on the night the opportunity to help determine what percentage of funds raised they would like to go directly to a particular family in desperate need. Hopefully we can present someone with a nice healthy cheque that will give them a ray of hope in their sad and unfortunate situation.”
