I attended a really fantastic event this evening at the Bloomingdales in Chevy Chase, MD. Critters for the Cure was founded by Clancy Kress (pictured above in the black dress). She started the nonprofit organization after her best friend, Ali passed away following a 30 year battle with cancer.
The reason UpperCrust Maids supports this organization is because we like the fact that this grassroots organization is personable. They go straight to the needs of the women, offering financial and emotional support.
The fundraiser that I attended tonight was in the form of a pleasant cocktail party where we were lavished with all types of delicious edibles and treated like royalty. During the cocktail portion, a silent fund raising auction took place (UpperCrust donated 4 cleanings to the auction).
The evening ended with a fashion show that had a hilarious and fun twist. The models took their cute little pooches down the runway with them and yes, the pooches stole the show.
If you are in search of a great organization to support, this one would be worth considering.
