Congratulations to Women’s Own Worth on its fifth annual WOWapalooza!
The event, held at the Governor’s Mansion in Little Rock, was a smashing success. Event organizers hoped to raise $80,000 to support victims of domestic violence. At last count, they had raised over $90,0000 which will be used to increase awareness of domestic violence and fund programs.
