Annual Events

 

International Celebration of Women Luncheon

This is a unique fashion show that does not feature fashions seen in Paris, London or New York. Instead, World Neighbors presents the latest fashions from the dirt roads, markets and fields in some of the poorest locations on Earth, including Burkina Faso, Nepal, Haiti, Peru, Guatemala and more!

Offering a snapshot into the daily life of women and families in developing countries, you will enjoy international food, an ethnic fashion show and shopping at this one-of-a kind event!

We have hosted this luncheon in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, Wichita Falls, Texas and Denver, Colorado. Contact Erin Engelke at 800.242.6387 ext. 0398 if you are interested in bringing this luncheon to your town.

Proceeds from the International Celebration of Women Luncheon benefit the work of World Neighbors.
