YWCA Wheeling has been on a mission since 1906 to eliminate racism, empower women, and promote peace, justice, freedom, and dignity for all.
The YW will hold a High Tea & Fashion Sale this weekend on March 6 from 1-3 p.m. at the YWCA at 1100 Chapline Street in Downtown Wheeling. The event will benefit the Y-Not-Repeat Boutique. Y-Not-Repeat is a program run solely by volunteers who wish to impact the lives of women and young girls. The program was created to assist women re-entering the workforce by providing professional clothing for free (with a referral), and it is also open the public.
Tickets are $20 per person and can be purchased at the door. Reservations can be made by calling 304.232.0511 and will be accepted until 9 p.m. on Friday, March 4. The tea will also feature tea from the Empress Emporium — Tea and Parfumerie in Centre Market. Guests will have the opportunity to browse the boutique from 12:30-3:30 p.m. with a complimentary clothing bag. Additional high-end clothing items including jewelry and accessories will be available in addition for purchase.
