A charity that I recently just read about and one that is related to fashion and a good cause is Brides Across America. Brides Across America is a national charity that gives away free wedding dresses to military brides. The military brides that are eligible for one of these free wedding dresses must have a fiance who is in active duty and is either deployed or has been deployed over the last five years. These women are able to select a wedding gown for free from some of the top wedding dress designers who have donated some of their sample size dresses to this charity.
For what all these women give up and have to go through I really appreciate what Brides Across America is doing. With the economy the way it is right now it's getting more and more difficult for brides to plan the wedding of their dreams, but with a free wedding dress these military brides can get even closer to what they've always wanted. If you still own your wedding dress you can donate it to this charity and know it will go to someone who really needs it. If and when I get married, hopefully sooner rather than later, I will most certainly be donating my wedding dress to Brides Across America as a way to give back to the people who sacrifice so much for the freedom that will all enjoy.
