INAUGURAL BEST OF THE BEST FOR THE BRIDE DONATES TO THE WELLSPRING

The Monroe-based bridal fundraiser, ​​Best of the Best for the Bride, ​recently ​donated 100% of proceeds from its inaugural fundraiser in May to The Wellspring. On Wednesday, May 30th, ​​Kim Romero, General Manager of the host venue, Bayou Landing, presented a check in the amount of $1,500 to ​​Caroline Cascio of The Wellspring.

​​"B​​est of the Best for the Bride is a new fundraiser that brings brides-to-be together with the very best wedding professionals in our area," said Kim Finley Romero. "From day one, we wanted to create an intimate one-on-one interaction between prospective brides and businesses who help make those special days a reality. But, even more importantly, we wanted​​ Best of the Best for the Bride to benefit our community in a special way. That's why we identified The Wellspring as the beneficiary of our fundraising efforts."

The Wellspring is an umbrella organization focused on leading the community by serving people in need. Founded in 1931, The Wellspring is one of the state’s oldest and most effective non-profits. The Wellspring's programming includes mentoring through Big Brothers Big Sisters of Northeast Louisiana; counseling, therapy and supervised visitation services through the Counseling & Family Development Center; comprehensive residential and non-residential services for survivors of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking. The Wellspring also provides an array of homeless and Veterans’ programs and services throughout Northeast Louisiana, serving some of our region’s most vulnerable individuals and families who are homeless, chronically homeless or at-risk of becoming homeless.
