FROCKTOBER rewards the truly deserving
Annah Stretton has been on a frock giving frenzy with her Frocktober campaign proving incredibly successful and rewarding.
Nearly a dozen deserving women throughout the country so far have been the humble recipients of best-selling Annah Stretton frocks.
The recipient of the Diana 2 Dress was the especially deserving, Tash Thomas. With an overwhelming number of nominations the terminally ill Christchurch based mother received the dress in time for what she said may be her last birthday.
Earlier this year Tash was told by her doctor that her suspected chest infection was in fact Cancer. Tash has accepted the end is near and her primary concern are her children's wellbeing.
“I’m overwhelmed by the support for me,” Tash wrote on Facebook. “God bless you all. Even those of you that don't know me but know of me from the bottom of my heart, thank you.”
Frocktober will be continuing throughout the month of October with a best-selling Annah Stretton frock up for grabs each day.
