WBBM-FM/B96, WBBM-AM/Newsradio 780 and WJMK-FM/K-Hits are teaming up to co-sponsor and take part in the 2nd Annual "Girls Night Out" party, a fundraising and awareness raising event for Go Red for Women. The event features a red carpet, a "Be Bold, Go Red" Spring 2012 fashion show from Chicago designers, cocktails, hors d'oeuvres, shopping, complimentary beauty treatments, over $4,000 in raffle prizes, swag bag valued at over $200, radio personalities, and more.
Taking part in the event will be stars from CBS Radio's B96 and K-Hits. Guest will be able to meet and hang out with Nikki, Showbiz Shelly and Rebecca Ortiz from B96, as well as Eddie & Jobo from K-Hits. WBBM-FM will also be providing the music all night.
Guests are encouraged to wear red (naturally) and to bring with them a gently worn handbag or professional shoes to help support Dress for Success, which is a not for profit organization that provides career development help to low-income Chicagoland women. Those who do donate a handbag or shoes will receive a complimentary raffle ticket.
The event will take place on Wednesday, February 29, from 7:00pm to 10:00pm at Alhambra Palace Restaurant, located at 1240 West Randolph Street in Chicago. Over 300 women attended last year's party and over 500 women are expected for this year's event. The $30 VIP tickets are sold out, but $20 general admission tickets remain. They can be purchased online only at this link
HERE. Tickets must be purchased in advance.
Ticket proceeds will go to the Go Red for Women initiatives.
Go Red For Women was created in 2004 by the American Heart Association. Its goal is to bring awareness that heart disease as the number one killer of women, claiming the lives of nearly 500,000 American women each year.
The American Heart Association will also be on on site to answer any questions the party goers may have about their heart health.
