The Goodness! Petal-to-Petal featured on CentricTV.com

 

 

CentricTV.com - Wednesday, August 10, 2011- $10 dollars a month, might not sound like a huge amount, but for Petals-N-Belles, Inc, that amount—matched with the donations of others—could change the lives of several young girls. The organization has launched ‘PETAL-TO-PETAL’, a pledge challenge that is seeking to engage 500 supporters to sign on for the monthly commitment for one year. The donations will go towards supporting the organization’s fall/winter 2011 programming curriculum—that focuses on mentoring and empowering.

Recently the organization hosted a summer “friendraiser” at New York’s Hotel Chantelle to celebrate the launch of the initiative. Hundreds of guest—from Amanda Diva to celebrity DJ Jasmine Solano—came out to support the cause.

Over $1,000 dollars (that’s 100 pledges) was raised at the organization’s ”friendraiser” event with the hopes of raising thousands more over the next year.
