Berry Student Organization to Sponsor Fashion Show Fundraiser for SOW, Inc.

Two Berry College student organizations are hosting a fashion show Friday (April 13) to raise money for SOW, a homeless shelter in South Rome.

The Berry Hunger Homelessness Outreach Program and Education and the Berry International Club have partnered to host the “Out of this World Fashion Show” fundraiser. The show, which will feature a futuristic theme with some splashes of excitement and wonder, will begin at 7 p.m. in the Spruill Ballroom at Berry.

The event is open to the public and tickets are $5 at the door. Please email Charnele.noel@vikings.berry.edu to make reservations.

Highlighted fashions will come from Belk, Blush Kennesaw, CC’s of Rome, DressU Boutique, and Posh Clothing Boutique.
Other sponsors include Bella Roma, Bliss Salon & Spa, Blonde on Broad, Bruster’s, , Chick-fil-A, Edible Arrangements, Ford, Gittings & Kane Jewelers, Greene’s Jewelers, Jandy’s, Mellow Mushroom, New Deli Schroeders, Paula’s Boutique on Broad, Provino’s Italian Restaurant, Rock Candy Bar, South Rome Redevelopment and Unique Threading.

“This is the third year we will be hosting our annual fashion show fundraiser and it continues to be an enlightening experience for me. It brings me great joy to be able to make a difference in someone’s life,” said Charnele Noel, senior and co-president of the outreach program. “I am so thankful for all of our sponsors who have partnered with us to fight against the problem of homelessness in the Rome community.”

Mike Jones, one of the founders of SOW (Serving Others Worldwide), has said that many of the people in need come from middle class families without a good support system. Noel added, “SOW Inc. is doing remarkable things in the Rome community and we want to be part of what they are doing. We also want to encourage others to support SOW.”
