A Recycled Night in Black and White is raising funds to empower disadvantaged women in Lee, Collier, and Hendry counties. A virtual event, A Recycled Night is scheduled to stream live so that supporters can watch it from the safety and convenience of their home.

With the community’s support, women who are survivors of human trafficking, domestic violence, residing in shelters, and unemployed, will receive professional attire for a job interview, counseling, and career development tools to help them achieve economic independence.

This one-of-a-kind event will feature local designers that will showcase runway-ready ensembles crafted from bags of recycled clothing and accessories donated by DFSSWFL, a live and silent auction, Trash to Treasure, mystery swag bags, and more. Sponsors will receive a watch party kit, a specialty dessert, a mystery swag bag and other surprises.

Local celebrity Auctioneer Rick Gallo who will present our amazing offering of experiences for viewers to bid on.

Thank you to Event Honorary Chair Christina Schwinn of Pavese Law Firm for her ongoing support.

Since opening in 2010, DFSSWFL has impacted and empowered over 3,500 women in Lee, Collier & Hendry counties. Our goal is to serve more women, provide more services and programs, and ultimately mentor them right into a job!
