The Bo’s Blessing’s Youth Ambassador President has done exceptional work piecing together a runway/fashion show as her project through the American Heritage Girls program. Lily has networked with organizations across Northwest Arkansas to create an event with purpose, showcasing Women Veterans for who they are in and outside of military service, and to support expecting Blue Star families across the area.
This event is open to the public. Entry fee is a donation of diapers/wipes/cream for NWA Blue Star babies.
All are invited to join in for pretty clothing (heavily donated by local businesses), pretty people, and a pretty good cause.
