If your love of fashion runs as
deep as your passion for supporting local children in need,
then The Proper Affair is a must-attend event. This
exclusive fashion show and fundraiser will be held at The
Boca Raton Resort & Club on Wednesday, April 18, 2012 from
6:30pm – 9:00pm.
The Proper Affair
partners two outstanding local businesses; Boston Proper – a
leading national catalog and online retailer of distinctive
women’s clothing and accessories, with the Achievement
Centers for Children & Families – a nonprofit organization
that helps low-income children and families. For the fourth
year, the event will bring guests together to bid on
distinctive Boston Proper fashions showcased in a live
runway show as well as an extensive high-end silent auction,
with many one-of-a-kind items, all surrounded by fabulous
food, drinks, music and friends.
Eleven Spa in Delray
Beach will be styling hair and makeup for the models as they
take to the catwalk to present Boston Proper’s newest and
most sophisticated collection. Guests will also have the
opportunity to vie for fabulous silent auction prizes as
well as purchase raffle tickets for three incredible gifts:
an Islamorada Vacation Escape, Disney World Tickets and a
Diamond Necklace from Gregory’s Fine Jewelers. Event and
raffle tickets can be purchased at
www.properaffair.com.
“We are so excited
about this year’s event. What began as a small luncheon four
years ago has blossomed into an incredible evening with more
than 300 guests. This is our favorite event because it
affords us the opportunity to help those in need right here
in our local community,” says Sheryl Clark, President,
Boston Proper. “We are extremely grateful to Boston Proper
for being such a loyal and supportive partner. The revenue
raised through our event goes directly into providing
quality programs for the 700 low-income children we serve
and for helping us continue to be an affordable option for
our children’s parents. Without the support and partnership
of Boston Proper, we would not be able to have the positive
impact on our community that we do,” stated Stephanie
Seibel, Executive Director of the Achievement Centers for
Children & Families Foundation.
Over 300 guests
attended last year’s Proper Affair and helped raise over
$125,000 in support of the Achievement Centers’ programs.
Tickets for 2012 The Proper Affair are $160 and can be
purchased at
www.properaffair.com or by calling the ACCF at
561-266-0003.
