The Clermont Woman’s Club recently held its major fundraiser, Fashion with a Purpose. The event, held at Gabby’s Banquet Hall, showcased the styles provided by Maxine’s Fashion Labels, on South Street in Leesburg. The beautiful designs, modeled by club members, showcased casual, chic, dressy outfits and jewelry.
The event, devoted to the club’s mission, had a focus on empowering to inspire and uniting to make a difference. The Club made tribute at the event to the over 20 local non-profit organizations they support throughout the year.
The Clermont Woman’s Club is a Federated Woman’s Club chartered in 1927. It is a non-profit service organization and by fundraising throughout the year, they can support international, national, and local charities. They meet on the first Tuesday of each month (September through May) at their clubhouse at 655 W. Broome Street and 7th Street, Clermont. For more information, see www.clermontwomansclub.org.
