Ponte Vedra Beach Underwood’s hosts fundraiser to support local charities

Posted

Underwood Jewelers recently joined with designer brand Lagos to host a cocktail reception Thursday, Oct. 4 in support of several local charities designated by the Ponte Vedra Woman’s Club.

The event, held at the Underwood’s in Ponte Vedra Beach, kicked off the store’s Lagos Trunk Show, which ran through Oct. 6. A portion of the trunk show’s sales, in addition to funds raised by raffling off an 18-carat yellow gold Ladies Caviar Lagos bracelet, benefited Saint Augustine Youth Services, the Florida School for the Deaf and Blind, the Beaches Emergency Assistance Ministry, the Betty Griffin Center and Expanding Your Horizons.

“We feel it’s very important to give back to our community – to touch the lives of the people that support our business every day,” commented John Rutkowski, manager of the Ponte Vedra Beach store.
