"Julie's Purse Project" is a donation-based charity, started by Julie Nakayama in 2015.

As the evening unfolds, adults are welcome back to enjoy some "mingle time" with other parents. We will engage in inspirational festivities and creative crafts, all while enjoying delectable and decadent appetizers!
