Casa Blanca Salon and Spa 2-17-07 Fundraising Event

Spa with a heart - Rancho Santa Fe, California - Casa Blanca Salon and Spa hosted a fundraising event on February 17, 2007 to benefit Rady Children's Hospital. The event raised over $10,000, which will be used to purchase two much-needed PC PalsTM units, valued at $5000 each. The innovative event also celebrated the launch of Casa Blanca's newly designed website, whereby 20% of all net proceeds from their boutique, Shop CB Online, during the event contributed to the evening's fundraising efforts combined with 100% of live and silent auction proceeds. The PC Pals program is administered by the Starlight Starbright Children's Foundation.

The festivities included a lingerie and loungewear fashion show featuring the 2007 spring line of Los Angeles designer, Wendy Glez, along with the 2007 spring line of jewelry that is currently featured in the Victoria Secret's catalog by the Beverly Hills designer to A-List celebrities, Lisa Stewart. Interactive product displays included an Oxygen Bar featuring the Oxygenating skin care line, and a Champagne Station highlighting the Pearl and Caviar skin care line, both from Pevonia Botanica. Antoine Macoule, Director of Operations for Pevonia West who helped sponsor the event, represented Pevonia Botanica. The popular online fundraising component has been extended through the end of May 2007 to include 20% of net proceeds from ShopCB Online purchases at www.casablancasalonspa.com, including the full line of all-natural Pevonia Botanica skin care products; the goal is to raise an additional $5000 to fund a third PC Pal.
