“In all, we raised over $8,700 from the Girls Night Out fundraiser,” explains Kristie Libby, PVH Marketing & Fund Development Manager. “The hospital was overwhelmed by the support of our community at the fashion show. It was great to be part of such a fun, positive event.”

The group would like to thank the following locations for helping out with ticket sales: Alana’s Nail & Hair Care, Avanti Bridal Salon, Capello Hair Studio & Day Spa, High Performance, PVH Registration, and Transitions Hair & Tanning.
