The 2010 Taylor’s Closet Fashion ShowOctober 23, 2010 The pictures & vids are up of our wonderful event, we’re all still recovering from it – but it was so worth all the hard work! For those of you who don’t know what I’m talking about – we just finished our annual Gala Benefit Fashion show. It took place at an airport hangar, and we put on an incredible fashion show for all of our guests. If you can believe, all of the clothes in the show were bought at thrift stores and transformed into today’s top trends by myself and our team of seamstresses and designers! Check out our vids and pics! TC FASHION INTRO from Matthew Reed on Vimeo. Taylor’s Closet TeaSeptember 12, 2010 We hosted a fabulous lunch and tea for 50 ladies who wanted to hear more about Taylor’s Closet.

So we did… and it was an amazing idea for sure. We raised enough money to clothe over 150 girls. Thank you Jesus! 2010 NAIOP Golf TournamentMay 13, 2010 NAIOP is a commercial real estate association, and each year they host a golf tournament to raise money for different charities. This year, we received 25% of the proceeds and Homesafe (another non-profit organization) received 75%. Next year we will receive 100% of the proceeds and the year after that, 75%! God is so good in providing through so many different means. It was a fun event and we were so thankful to be working with everyone involved. Lindsay had a chance to get up and speak for a couple of minutes and she did a great job. She just shared a little bit about how Taylor’s Closet got started and what we do. It’s funny because speaking to a room full of golfers we didn’t know if they would completely “get it”. However to our surprise when Lindsay was all finished an older gentleman just handed us a wad of cash and his business card. We asked what it was for but he cut me off with a grunt. And that was it. God had touched his heart for these girls and he just handed us cash so we can keep instilling hope and love into girls’ lives. It was an awesome event and we look forward to next year! |
