OWL Past President and Founder of “The Bella Project”, Valerie Schmidt, was honored at the YWCA Oahu Empower Hour. The Bella Project breaks down financial barriers by providing prom dresses and formal attire to high school students so they can attend special events. Over the past 14 years, they have given out over 4,000 dresses. The Bella Project will now be managed by YWCA Oahu as part of its Dress for Success Honolulu program. Congratulations Val!
