So much is happening in your Village this fall…
🍂 Fall Grateful Village Update 🍂
We’ve got some exciting news and important updates to share this season:
✨ Drop In, Dress Up! An Evening with Dress Up, Suit Up / The Prom Dress Exchange is happening Saturday, Nov 1 at Engaged Asheville. A night of wine, sangrias, hors d’oeuvres, dancing, and the chance to take home or wear gorgeous dresses, suits, and separates. Every dollar raised keeps the Prom Dress Exchange running for hundreds of kids across WNC.
🎭 Through Chances for Children Carolinas, your support is already at work. At our last Wee Trade, $3,000+ in presale ticket sales went straight to our scholarship fund, and this summer’s shoe drive raised $600 (thank you, Statemint donors!). This fall alone, scholarships are helping kids in junior theater, dance, gymnastics, and horseback riding — including foster families and those affected by Hurricane Helene. Applications are still open: chancesforchildrencarolinas.com
👕 Wee Trade was voted #2 in Mountain Xpress for kids’ clothing. Thank you for voting and for making this community-driven model thrive. Let’s go for #1 next year!
🎄 Holiday Village Trade will take a pause this year. After the hurricane, recovery, and a full Wee Trade season, we’ll bring it back when we can do it right.
📅 Spring Wee Trade registration opens mid-November: workers first, then last sale’s workers and consignors, then new consignors in December.
We’re grateful every day for this Village — thank you for helping us keep families connected, supported, and thriving all year long. 💛
