The Junior Ladies of Charity at St. John’s Prep and Immaculate Conception Catholic Academy are giving back, with a needle and thread.
The girls are creating stylish pieces from scratch through the organization “Dress a Girl Around the World,” so that other girls can feel their best, regardless of their circumstances.
Pat Mulé and Anna Rocchio, moderators for the Junior Ladies of Charity, and members Belenna Lauto, Cindy Phillips, and Mary O’Donoghue have helped the Juniors improve their sewing skills. They were all amazed and proud of how much progress the group made. We all look forward to seeing the results of their hard work and dedication.
