Update:
Hey everyone! The event was so exciting! Sandra gave a total of 4 makeovers and I gave a total of 3. The art there was absolutely amazing, it was hard to keep myself at my station haha. Gallons to Ounces preformed great music- a great mix of alternative, jazz, and soft rock. I also ended up premiering my makeup company with the host, which was such a great opportunity. I hope to definitely set another event up soon in DC and also NY. Stay tuned!

On May 19, 2012 our team “27″ (to celebrate Trisha’s birthday) including Trisha, Ive, and I were assigned to a DC elementary school for Hands on DC to help clean up the school and to support public schools in the DMV area. The Charity event was a huge success! We were able to raise $1,346 to contribute to restoring the DC public schools and ended up being the top ranked team for the event.

Special thanks to all of our contributors!
