POSH GiRL Events - "Party with a Purpose"

POSH GiRL Events cordially invites the senior-class female students at your school to "Party With A Purpose" this Saturday, April 24 at the Ritz-Carlton in Tysons Corner, where we will be donating approximately 100 prom dresses to high school ladies in the Washington area, courtesy of the Brunell Family Foundation/Caitlin's Closet (founded by New Orleans Saints Mark Brunell and his wife, Stacy). High school ladies in need of prom dresses receive complimentary admission to Party With a Purpose. Ticket information for all others is below.


"Party With a Purpose" is a fashion and accessories showcase, being presented by the founder of POSH Couture Jewell Green, wife of Pro-football Hall of Famer Darrell Green, through her philanthropic and social event division, POSH GiRL Events. This event will be from 12 to 5 p.m., on April 24 at the Ritz-Carlton Tysons Corner, located at 1700 Tyson's Blvd., in McLean, VA 22102.

Please share this invitation with students, organizations, individuals and friends whom you feel can benefit from the donation of prom dresses, and a fashion, health and wellness showcase. There will also be a POSH pamper room and an extraordinary NFL meet and greet to celebrate the NFL Draft, featuring Darrell Green and several players from the Washington Redskins. A portion of the proceeds from this event will benefit the National Football League Players Association's pledge to "One Team 4 Haiti," to support relief efforts through the Clinton-Bush Haiti Fund.

Opportunities for Minority Male Teachers

Black Male Teachers


Do you know any Black males who are seniors in high school who want to go to college out of state for "FREE" ? Several Black Colleges are looking for future black male teachers and will send them to universities/colleges for 4 years FREE.

The 'Call Me MISTER' program is an effort to address the critical shortage of African American male teachers particularly among South Carolina 's lowest performing public schools. Program participants are selected from among under-served, socio-economically disadvantaged and educationally at-risk communities.

The program is a collaboration between Clemson University and four historically black colleges in South Carolina : Benedict College , Claflin University , Morris College and South Carolina State University .

The project provides:
  • Tuition for admitted students pursuing approved programs of study at participating colleges.
  • An academic support system to help assure their success. A cohort system for social and cultural support.
