A group that calls itself The Pyjama Foundation is set to host an inaugural charity fashion luncheon for the benefit of children.

The Pyjama Foundation will host the luncheon at The Waves Sports Club for the benefit of foster children. The raised funds are set to be used to help improve the foster children’s literacy and regain their trust in adults. The event will kick off with a parade.

Pyjama Foundation co-ordinator and luncheon organiser Cressida Toorenburg said there will be about 80 people who are set to attend the event, which will also feature a fashion show by Targo St boutique Vovo Modelle.

The Pyjama Foundation coordinator also said that there will also be a display from different businesses including Nathan’s Boutique, Zazi the mineral make-up, Linda Forward will be doing hats and Robyn Wust will be doing glass jewelry.

An auction will also be held, featuring donated items including paintings, paint vouchers, wheel alignments and jewellery.

About 10 businesses in the Wide Bay area would this year participate in their Pyjama Day, by dressing in pyjamas at work or school. All funds raised go towards training our volunteers who go into the homes of foster children to improve their literacy.
