The Kemper Freeman family and The Bellevue Collection to donate 100% of ticket sales to Treehouse and Dress for Success Seattle
BELLEVUE, Wash., Oct. 10, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — The Bellevue Collection celebrated its 17th annual Fashion Week over the weekend, returning to full capacity for the first time since 2019 and bringing Seattle’s Eastside community together for fashion and fundraising. Through ticket sales of the event’s two premier shows, The Posh Party Trend Show and The Collective Runway Show, The Bellevue Collection raised $94,000 for two local nonprofit organizations, Treehouse and Dress for Success Seattle. With this year’s funds, The Bellevue Collection’s ticketed event donations total more than $1.5 million over the last 17 years.
“We’re so grateful to have the opportunity to showcase fall fashion and raise funds for these amazing local nonprofits,” said VP of Marketing for The Bellevue Collection, Jennifer Leavitt. “While Fashion Week is a great way to bring people together for fashion and fun, the real passion for Kemper Development Company and The Bellevue Collection comes from the support we are able to provide to our local and regional community.”
The Posh Party Trend Show raised $35,500 for Treehouse, which supports children in foster care by providing a combination of programs that meet basic material needs, fund extracurricular and school activities, and provide support for academic success and the transition to adult independence. In addition, The Collective Runway Show raised $58,500 for Dress for Success Seattle, a nonprofit empowering women to achieve economic independence by providing a network of support, development tools, and professional attire to thrive in work and in life.
