Kappa Alpha Theta's Denim Dash

Today, Wed, Mar. 2 the Kappa Alpha Theta's of Baylor University held their annual Denim Dash Trunk Show. Denim Dash took place in the Theta Chapter Room in the Stacy Riddle Forum from 10-5 p.m.
The trunk show consisted of top designers who showed their newest designs consisting of; Plum, Stella and dot, charity denim and rock bottom boutique.
 10 % of all money raised will directly benefit Theta’s philanthropy, CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates).  CASA volunteers are appointed by judges to watch over and advocate for abused and neglected children, to make sure they don’t get lost in the overburdened legal and social service system or languish in inappropriate group or foster homes. Volunteers stay with each case until it is closed and the child is placed in a safe, permanent home. For many abused children, their CASA volunteer will be the one constant adult presence in their lives.  Theta has chosen this organization to support and help provide children with the voice they may not have alone.  
The event went very well and had a great turn out.  Since I'm a Theta I'm also very passionate about CASA. I've had the opportunity to learn exactly what CASA stands for and have been given several opportunities to raise money for this special organization.
