Equipping young women with confidence for the new school year! 🎒👟✨
This week, we had the incredible privilege of partnering with MIDFLORIDA Credit Union as the presenting sponsor of our Back-to-School event. Thanks to their generosity, each participant received brand-new backpacks and sneakers, and got to shop the boutique with $100 credit—and the amazing MidFlorida Cares team volunteered their time so every guest had a personal shopping partner!
Each young woman left with new knowledge on healthy skincare, freshly trimmed hair, a care bag packed with beauty, hair, and feminine hygiene products, and oral care goodies generously donated by Winter Haven Family & Cosmetic Dentistry: Dr. Cerdan & Associates!
We also kept everyone refreshed throughout the day thanks to incredible food and treat donations from our local favorites: Honeycomb Bread Bakers, Gourmet Goodies Bakery, El Olivo Mexican Restaurant, Bistro Pizza, HTeaO Lakeland FL, and Sugar & Slice.
Additional thanks to Shear Magnolia, the Riskin Family, Trinity Presbyterian Church, , the Kimsey Family, The Doebele Family, and Ed and Nikki Smith.
And, last but not least, thank you to Pace Center For Girls, Polk, Anchor House Ministries, Crystal Lake United Methodist Church, Florida Statewide Guardian ad Litem Office, and Options for Women PHC for entrusting us with the young women in your care!
From the bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU to MidFlorida Credit Union, our donors, and all of our local community partners. Your support didn't just provide supplies—it gave these young women dignity, hope, and confidence as they step into this new school year. 🌟
