Designers boost Bethune

31 March 2016

Global fashion brand Kaprice joined forces with jewelry designer Gosia Orlowska, Carla Personal Styling and Pakt on Mar 17 to celebrate International Women’s Day and raise money for Bethune House Migrant Women’s Refuge.
About a dozen women attended the benefit show organized by Kaprice’s Ana Briones, where clothes, jewelry and other designer items were put up for sale, with part of the proceeds going to Bethune House.
Bethune executive director Edwina Antonio was unable to join the event as she was attending to a sick client, but extended her gratitude to the women who extended help.
Celebrity photographer Xyza Cruz-Bacani, who was a former OFW herself, spoke of how she got to be where she is now, and of her own fundraising efforts for Bethune.
Also among the guests was The SUN editor Daisy CL Mandap, who has been designated Bethune’s Ambassador of Goodwill not just for raising funds for the shelter, but also for raising awareness about its work and its needs.
Briones said the money raised from the charity event will be handed personally to Antonio sometime this month.
