Attendees will be treated to low prices on popular designer heels and handbags and all on sale for a good cause. As Dr. Kellie M.

Launching this fashion-focused event, we have created an opportunity where shopping for great treasures can help girls, coming from all walks of life, on their path to recovery and healing.” And in a race to win the Diva Dash trophy and gift certificate to Flo’s on 7th, dashers will pair up in teams of four in heels, one inch or higher. The race’s obstacle course challenges participants to compete in lanes with a tricycle and a hula-hoop challenge. GIVING IN STYLE EVENTS Arizona is a hotbed for philanthropy.
