“In all the busyness of life, the Among Friends at Savannah’s wine tasting gives friends and colleagues a minute to slow down, catch up, and enjoy great food and wine while knowing that they are raising money for a wonderful cause,” Anna Lafferre, Dress for Success board member, said. “You might think you are just buying an event ticket, but what you are really doing is helping a woman who is down on her luck get the right clothes and encouragement she needs to go on a job interview and land a job, which will change her life.”
