The Bucks County Association for the Blind and Visually Impaired (BCABVI) Fashion Show and Silent Auction Fundraiser will be held on Sunday, May 19th at 2:00pm at the Doylestown Country Club located at 20 Country Club Lane in Doylestown, PA. This year’s theme on the catwalk features vintage clothing of the 1960’s provided by the Thrift Shop at BCABVI.
Attendees can leisurely bid on auction items and roam the coveted Doylestown Country Club grounds usually retained for members only. Some of the incredible auction items include 4 Park Hopper Passes to Walt Disney World, Tickets to Philadelphia Sporting Events, and many fine dining options in Bucks County. Also included are many great local offerings including family, health and leisure activities, as well as custom fine art and lifestyle gifts. Following the catwalk, all fashions featured will be available for purchase along with additional vintage and modern outfits.
Throughout the gala affair, all attendees will enjoy premium hors d’oeuvres and cocktails, and can purchase hand-rolled cigars which are created in front of them. At the end of the evening, participants will leave with a special gift bag featuring promotional items from BCABVI and its sponsors.
Our distinguished sponsors for this annual event include Eye Associates LLC, First National Bank of Newtown, The Seiler Group of Raymond James, Martin LLC, Hoffman, Michaels & Sternberg LLC, and Kardos, Rickles, Bidlingmaier & Bidlingmaier Attorneys At Law.
The Bucks County Association for the Blind and Visually Impaired provides resources, answers and support for people with blindness or other visual impairment that maximize their ability to meet life’s daily challenges and realize their continued self-worth and value to our community. With this mission in mind, this year’s proceeds will go to the Low Vision Clinics. At our specialized clinics, patients are taught how to adapt to their vision loss and continue living rich, vibrant and independent lives. No one is ever turned away based on an inability to pay, so our goal is to raise $15,000 to offset the clinic’s operating costs.
Tickets for this worthwhile fundraiser are $55 each. Sponsorship opportunities are available and a deadline for all submissions is April 30th, 2013. Please call BCABVI at 215-968-9400 for specific questions or for a complete list of auction items, sponsors and event registration information please visit the BCABVI website at http://www.bucksblind.org/ .
