United Way’s Dress Down and Dine
1.
Dress Down and Dine is a women’s only leadership event hosted by the Women’s Leadership Council of the United Way of the Big Bend. It’s a chance to have a girl’s night out and support a great cause. Proceeds from the event are used to support an early literacy initiative called READ UNITED. In 2010, READ UNITED was created to encourage a love for reading and provide each first grade student in our eight-county area a new free book. Last year, 200 volunteers distributed over 4,500 books, and since 2010, over 27,000 new books have been out into the hands of first-grade students.
