Our Fashion Show was spectacular

Many thanks to the hard working team that put on this wonderful fashion show.

 

This was a fund raiser for the CFUW Kelowna scholarship programme.  One of the highlights of the afternoon was to hear tesitimony from a past scholarship recipient of how the scholarship had given her the help she needed to finish her education.
