Ride for Hope, a 501(c)3 motorcycle ride and celebration conceived and organized by JuliAnne Scully, owner/operator of JuliAnne's Salon & Spa in Schaumburg, will partner with Kim Panzarella, owner of Magnolia’s Weddings and Events in Bartlett, for a Holiday Shopping Night fundraiser on November 30. Money raised will benefit local women battling ovarian cancer who are facing financial hardships. “Our mission is to spread awareness of the symptoms of this silent disease, and offer financial support that women and families need while on this devastating journey,” said Scully. “November 30 is #GivingTuesday, and we are so excited to join Ride for Hope in the global movement of generosity to help improve the lives of women in our community suffering from ovarian cancer,” said Panzarella.
Admission to the event is free and will feature a variety of small vendors including: Rebecca’s Cakes by Design, Never Ending Cycles/Leave Me a Gnome, Wine & Dogs, Sophia Joy Candles, Lots of Knots Bakery/Danella Tereza Color Streak Nails, The Closet in Bartlett, Grace & Heart Jewelry, Smoke Showin’ Cigars, WinePull.com, Tastefully Simple, and JuliAnne’s Spa and Salon. “This is a chance to come out and support small businesses and be a part of the Ride for Hope family,” Scully said. Raffle tickets for a $750 gift card tree are one for $20 or three for $50. Twenty-five dollar raffle tickets to win a trip to Barbados will be available for purchase. Winner of the gift card tree will be announced on December 18. The trip winner will be pulled at the event. Everyone will be entered in a door prize drawing for a $50 Pinstripes gift card, and a cash bar will feature $5 teal-tinis and sangria. Butler service appetizers will be served.
The Holiday Shopping Night takes place at Magnolia’s Weddings and Events, 389 Bartlett Plaza in Bartlett, on November 30 from 6:00-9:00pm. For more information call 630-855-4413.
