Free Wedding Gown and Veil

[Over50Newbie]

I have a size 10 wedding gown and veil in absolutely perfect condition. It has been dry cleaned and placed in a special box that keeps it in pristine condition.

I would like to give this to a woman that can not afford her own wedding gown. I don't want to post it on a site like eBay, because I'm afraid someone might contact me and scam me into believing she deserves it.

Does anyone know a deserving woman that could use this gown, someone in financial need that can't afford her own?

It really is beautiful, as you can see from the picture below...

Let's make someone's wedding a day that she can't forget!

Thanks so much to 'Grog' who sent me a PM and told me about an organization called "Brides Against Breast Cancer." This is a wonderful non-profit organization that takes wedding gowns, sells them to women at bridal shows throughout the country, and then donates the money to women with terminal breast cancer so that they can have a "final wish" before they die.

I never had heard about this place until now.

The good news is that I am shipping out the wedding gown tomorrow to this lovely organization.

Have a nice day, everyone!

That's awesome, Lynette!

It's such a sweet thing for you to do, and will make someone feel absolutely wonderful!!

This is a true example of "pay it forward". :)
