"I do not think there are many absolute truths, but I do believe absolutely that every woman in Northwest Florida deserves basic healthcare. Not all women are getting what they need, and we can do better," said Michelle Anchors, 2014 Chair of the Little Black Dress Party.
"The Little Black Dress party is a festive occasion, but the purposes it serves and the people it ultimately helps are serious. We can enjoy a beautiful evening raising funds for these women, but more importantly, we can celebrate that we are helping provide the education and care needed to keep them as healthy workers, mothers and volunteers right here, in our little corner of the state."
Voted Best Local Event on the Emerald Coast, the event has raised over $122,000 for local women since 2010. All proceeds from this year's event will benefit the White-Wilson Community Foundation and provide health screenings and follow up care to women in need.
The night will feature live and silent auctions, heavy hors d'oeuvres, a champagne toast, live aerialist performers, dancing and a cash bar. Men and women are encouraged to wear black and white clothing and enjoy the night of celebration.
