It was a night in Charlottetown, but for all the sparkle and glamour, it might have been a night in the Big Apple.
About 400 women gathered for ‘The Ultimate Girls’ Night Out—An Evening in Manhattan,’ a charity event organized by the Prince Edward Island Business Women Association (PEIBWA) and sponsored by jewellery brand, Tresor Paris Canada.
Guests received a pair of Tresor Paris earrings, while a grand prize winner received a collection of jewellery to reflect her style and sophistication.
A portion of each ticket sold for the event went toward a scholarship.
“We at Tresor Paris are always willing to give back to worthy organizations like the PEI Business Women Association,” said Hugh McKeon, Canadian director of Tresor Paris.
Along with Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency (ACOA), the association helps provide women business owners with the resources they need to improve their growth and competitiveness. These resources include training and advice to strengthen their management capabilities and business skills, helping to improve their access to capital and business support services, thereby encouraging them to explore international markets and to develop innovative ways to do business.
“The PEI Business Women Association was able to offer an incredible experience to a group of 400 women largely because of the generosity of Tresor Paris,” said the group’s executive director, Hannah Bell.
