SAN FRANCISCO, CA--(Marketwire - August 18, 2010) - Realtor Robin Kohn Glazer will host a fashion charity event at the McGuire Real Estate Mill Valley office to support Image for Success, a non-profit organization helping disadvantaged women get back into the workplace.
Many women find it difficult to part with once-loved clothes, shoes and jewelry. Yet, guests of the "Pay it Forward with Fashion" event will gather all of those items collecting dust in their closets for the special day's festivities. Each guest will pick ten items from their batch to trade with others, while left-over items will be used for donation. Image for Success accepts items in excellent and gently-worn conditions, as well as in current fashion and/or season.
Donations from Sunday's event will provide Marin County's less-fortunate with appropriate attire for the professional atmosphere. The charitable efforts of Image for Success and its donors grant two-week wardrobes to disenfranchised women, men and children transitioning toward self-reliance. Fundraising events like "Pay it Forward with Fashion" tend to important issues while providing an enjoyable experience for the local community too. Swap, give away and take pleasure in a few hours of good company on Sunday, Aug. 22, starting at 2:00 p.m.
Image for Success is solely referral-based. It works in part with over 45 local social service agencies. Contributions have assisted those in homeless shelters, job training programs and domestic violence centers all across Marin County. More than 50 Image for Success volunteers serve as personal shoppers to its women, men and children clients. For more information about Image for Success visit www.imageforsuccess.org.
