Close to 400 Peninsula-based women came out to celebrate the Parca Auxiliary’s 22nd Annual Spring Luncheon and Fashion Show May 26 at a beautiful Hillsborough estate, where the crowd socialized and bid on fabulous auction packages, including an adorable Goldendoodle puppy who went for $3,700.
Throughout the morning, guests enjoyed a parade of contemporary sportswear and children’s wear from boutiques including Hugo Boss, J’me, Les Deux Copins, LuLu Lemon and Baby Couture. The afternoon’s grand finale was a high-style fashion show featuring the latest styles from Tory Burch and a medley of refined men’s looks from Wilkes Bashford. Burlingame’s DiDi Salon provided professional hair styling and makeup.
Paige Meek, president of the Parca Auxiliary, presented The Johnson Family, including Mr. and Mrs. Charles B. Johnson, Sarah Redlich and Jenny Bolt, with the Parca Angel Award, given to individuals or organizations in recognition of outstanding contributions to the Parca Auxiliary. The Johnson family’s strong multi-generational support for Parca dates back decades.
"Gathering on the Green,” with its whimsical lawn-sports theme, raised close to $185,000 for Parca, a non-profit association serving people with developmental disabilities and their families in the Bay Area.
Co-chairs Kate Parsons and Taryn Sutton were delighted with the success of the event, saying, "Raising funds to improve the lives of those with developmental disabilities is a purpose that drives and inspires us all. The funds raised today will make a real difference to Parca Org. Working on this project has been a real honor for the entire team.”
