For the last two years, the staff and clients of Allure Spa have been at the heart of helping orphans in Bangladesh through Sandra's charitable work, Friends of the World. As you know, Molly, Julianne, Keleigh, Kathleen, and Sandra traveled to Bangladesh to train these orphans in cosmetology, and it was your generous support that made it all possible. Now, there are seven young people who have left the orphanage and are ready to make a life for themselves in Dhaka. They just need us to help them with the final piece of becoming self-sufficient, successful adults. Please join us in fulfilling our commitment to them to start a salon business that they will take over and manage!
Tomorrow is your chance to enjoy an evening out while raising the funds needed to start the business in Bangladesh. We will gather at the Tirrell Room in Quincy at 6:30 for an evening of good food, good friends and lots of really great raffle and silent auction prizes. Kathleen's daughter and several of her friends will model saris, beautiful clothing typically worn in Bangladesh. You will also have the chance to hear what this experience has meant to the orphans in their own voices. We have put together a video recorded on Sandra and Molly's last trip to Bangladesh and it features some of the young women expressing their hopefulness and thankfulness for this opportunity.
We are looking forward to seeing you at the Tirrell Room tomorrow night to share our successes and ensure the future success of these young people.
If you can't make it, please stay tuned for the Allure Spa May newsletter, which you'll be receiving shortly and will give you an update on what promises to be a wonderful evening.
