Phyllis's Muscial review

Let the fun begin. It is time to gear up for 
The San Luis Obispo County Women's Shelter major yearly fundraiser."Phyllis's Musical Review"

The Women’s Shelter Program is dedicated to supporting victims of intimate partner violence (IPV) and child abuse. Twenty-four hour crisis line, emergency shelter, food and clothing, counseling, case management, transitional housing, advocacy, and assistance with restraining orders is provided to victims. Education and prevention programs are offered to local agencies, schools, and to our community. During fiscal year 2010/11, the Women’s Shelter Program assisted over 800 people affected by the crime of intimate partner violence.

There are many local individuals dedicated to providing support so victims may create a violence-free lifestyle. Client services are funded by money raised during our annual fashion and variety show to be held March 2^nd & 3^rd, 2012 at the Alex Madonna Expo Building. This popular fundraiser has been highly successful, thanks to the overwhelming generosity of the Madonna family and local businesses who provide items for the raffle and auctions.

This year the show promises to be big, special and full of surprises. Along with a good meal, wine tasting, live and silent auctions there is a fantastic interactive musical fashion show with local politicians, news TV personalities and local residents.

My daughters, Maddy and Izzy have been volunteering their time for 12+ years to this wonderful benefit.
Please join us this year for what will surely be another great show knowing you have helped the victims of domestic violence in the county.
