“Sterling Silver for a Sterling Cause” to benefit Hope Haven of the Lowcountry was held at the Charles Street Gallery this past weekend. Hope Haven board members Marianne Rothnie and Nancy Sturgis hosted the sale of Silpada sterling, artisan-crafted jewelry and a trunk show featuring clothing from Margaret Ann’s. Twenty percent of all sales were donated to Hope Haven, which will go towards a matching grant that supports an evidence based child abuse prevention program.  To find out more about the wonderful work of Hope Haven, to volunteer or to donate, go to www.hopehavenlc.org. Here are some pictures from the event:
