Formal wear donations sought for military spouses

Every year Camp Pendleton has its Marine and Navy Balls, where our military and their spouses don formal uniforms and attire for the very special occasion. Spouses and partners, of course, need to look equally formal, and I have been collecting evening wear for them, for some years now.

They have a Ball Giveaway in September, and this is when the spouses and partners get the opportunity to go into a large hall, and choose an outfit for the Ball.

I am collecting donations for this occasion until Aug. 31. I must deliver the donations before Sept. 2. If you have any ball gowns, cocktail dresses, or other evening wear (for ladies), and/or tuxedos, dark suits, etc., for the men in good condition, I would appreciate the donations.

Please call me at (760) 806-7610 to arrange for pick-up of donations or more information.
