United Way to hold ‘Girls’ Night Out’ fundraiser on Feb. 27 in Oxnard

Meathead Movers joins United Way of Ventura County  for a pampered evening benefiting the organization’s United Women’s Leadership Council

CAMARILLO — For one night only, employees of Meathead Movers will replace their uniforms with tuxedoes and moving boxes with martinis to assist the United Way of Ventura County’s United Women’s Leadership Council, the organization reported in a media release.

Meathead Movers, in conjunction with the United Women’s Leadership Council, will host another “Girls’ Night Out” fundraising event from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. Monday, Feb. 27  at The Tower Club, 300 E. Esplanade Drive, The Penthouse, 22nd Floor, in Oxnard.  The cost to attend is $40 per person. To RSVP online, go to www.vcunitedway.org and click on “news and events” or call 805.485.6288, ext. 265.

“We are very excited to once again be involved in such a fun event to raise awareness surrounding the United Women’s Leadership Council,” said Amy Fonzo, United Way’s vice president of Community Investment. “The focus of our group is to help empower female foster youth to be self-sufficient and stable enough to function independently once they leave the foster care system. This event will help raise the funds necessary to help make that happen.”

“Girls’ Night Out” will feature hors d’oeuvres, a no host bar, entertainment, and a gift bag with Meatheads serving up all the food and fun. A new aspect added to the event this time is the 1st Annual “Wine Raffle.” Attendees will have the opportunity to win 50 bottles of wine with a total value of over $1,000. Each bottle of wine is retail valued at over $20 and only 100 tickets will be sold at $50 each for a chance to win.

To donate wine and/or to purchase wine raffle tickets, please contact Amy Fonzo at 805.485.6288, ext. 260 or afonzo@vcunitedway.org or Alex Garcia at 805.485.6288, ext. 265 or emailagarcia@vcunitedway.org
