Today’s Little Black Dress Kickoff Luncheon brought together an incredible group of men and women who are passionate about creating brighter futures for women and children in our community.

Together, we’re turning one little black dress into a powerful statement against poverty. Want to support the cause? Donate to our team’s fundraising page! Your gift will help fund viral programs, including our Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library, which provides free books to children in our community and helps build a strong foundation for lifelong learning.

Thank you to our sponsors for making this event possible!
