Now in its fourth year, Power of the Purse pairs Portland community leaders, artists, entrepreneurs, and philanthropists with local purse designers to create one-of-a-kind, dream handbags. The Purses will be auctioned off during a live fashion show—modeled by Girls Inc. girls—to support programming that inspires Portland area girls to be strong, smart, and bold!
Volunteers are needed to help with day-time set up, greeting, registration, selling raffle beads, and working at the purse boutique and silent auction during the event. The event starts at 5:30 pm, March 12th. There are various volunteer shifts on Wednesday the 11th and Thursday the 12th as well . Please see the application for more information.
If you or someone you know is interested, please complete the one-page application and submit it by Friday, February 27th. Also, please note that the required volunteer training will be Monday, March 2nd. Training sessions will be offered at the Girls Inc. office at 4pm, 5pm, and 6pm that day.
