Fashion for Freedom: A Clothing Fundraiser for Healing
🗓️ Date & Time:
Sunday, September 7, 2025
2:00 PM – 5:00 PM
U Grow Girl Flower Farm • Salmon Arm, BC
📝 About the Event:
Fashion for Freedom began as a way to bring women together in a joyful atmosphere of fashion, connection, and healing. Over the past two events, this powerful fundraiser has raised more than $17,000, helping women survivors of childhood sexual abuse attend the Time to Heal Retreat—Canada’s only free healing experience for CSA survivors.
Now in its third year, we’re expanding the heart and the reach.
🌸 New this year: We’re inviting young women ages 12 and up to join in the experience! Inspired by our daughters, who help build and nurture U Grow Girl alongside us, this change creates space for mothers, daughters, sisters, and chosen family to connect and heal together.
