Horror actresses and filmmakers are hosting a charity clothing drive at Dark Delicacies in Burbank, California, USA in honor of Women in Horror Month.
The women headlining the event are Elissa Dowling, Victoria DeMare, Monique Parent, Rachel Grubb, Eileen Dietz, Michelle Tomlinson, Mo Whelan, Reyna Young, Melissa Krimsky, Brooke Lewis and Tara Cardinal. Many more are expected to make appearances to support them.
The Clothing Drive, aka “Strip for a Cause,” created by Tara Cardinal, will benefit the LA Chapter of Covenant House. Representatives from Covenant House will be on hand to collect donations.
Covenant House California is a non-profit agency whose mission is to reach out to at-risk homeless youth living on the streets and offer them opportunities to turn their lives around, and your donations are tax deductible (Miss Cardinal will be personally autographing your tax donation receipts). In addition, several of the Scream Queens are offering discounts on their merchandise for sale to anyone who donates new or gently used clothing. Tara Cardinal will be offering autographed copies of her Warner Brother’s film “Delivery” for only $5.00 to anyone who donates. Items specifically requested by Covenant House are as follows:
Gift Certificates – all kinds, food stores, clothing stores, restaurants, movie stores, book stores etc…
Every day Essentials (Large & Plus Sizes needed!), Underwear, socks, gently used bras, T-shirts
Clothing and Accessories (Large & Plus sizes needed!) – Professional and casual clothing appropriate for older teens and young adults – shoes, ties, belts etc..
Personal Items – iPods, Walkmans, watches, jewelry, cologne, perfume, bath and body gift packs, sunglasses, batteries (all sizes)
So come out, meet the girls, get your memorabilia - and bring something for the kids.
Dark Del’s is also hosting a food drive! Your non-perishable food items are greatly appreciated and will go to feed the homeless and hungry in Los Angeles.
Since 1988, CHC has impacted the lives of more than 160,000 homeless youth out of our Los Angeles and Bay Area locations. More than 80% of their funding comes from private donations.
