Duchessa and Friends - Hurricane Relief Party

On Tuesday, December 4, join Duchessa and friends for a Hurricane Relief Party in the basement of the Pixie School at Wantagh Memorial Congregational Church. Enjoy live music while shopping for handmade and unique gift items from Duchessa, Ravencroft Designs and LD Tees, sample delicious specialties from Plays With Food, and enjoy a brief chair massage by licensed massage therapist Eugene Wood or let Dr. Kathy Bonnano, Chiropractor, adjust your spine. A percentage of all sales as well as all proceeds from raffles will be donated to the Wantagh 6-12 Association's HUG program to help Wantagh families in need following Hurricane Sandy.


This event is also the kick off for Duchessa's direct sales program, offering home jewelry parties and commission-based representative opportunities. A wide variety of limited edition items will be available for purchase or order, as well as the new "Women of Fame and Fable" collection. Visit www.duchessaoriginals.com for a sneak peek at the new collection of unique handmade jewelry.


Light refreshments will be served. Raffle tickets are only $1 each, with all raffle proceeds going directly to the cause. The first 50 guests will receive complimentary goodie bags. Admission is free, but attendees are asked to bring a new unwrapped toy to donate to the John Theissen Children's Foundation. The Foundation will distribute the toys to children of families affected by the hurricane as well as children who are sick or underprivileged.
