Halos & Handbags | Boys & Girl's Clubs of Greater Scottsdale


On Saturday, May 1st, Sammy Glassman and Marlys Lazarus (Mother & Daughter Real Estate Team at The Williams Real Estate Company), joined Lisa Haffner, host of “Your Life A to Z” on KTVK-3TV, and the Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Scottsdale for a fabulous afternoon of fashion, food, and fun at the 2nd annual Halos & Handbags luncheon and auction at the newly remodeled El Chorro Lodge in Paradise Valley.

From clutches to carryalls, and from vintage to designer, event attendees had the opportunity to bid on more than 100 unique gift items and handbags. They enjoyed a sophisticated afternoon browsing through some of the most stylish handbags available from Coach, Fendi, Kate Spade, and many others.



Halos & Handbags is a celebration of one-of-a-kind vintage clothing and modern accessories with a special fashion show by Fashion by Robert Black – Phoenix fashion icon and former owner of FORD/Robert Black modeling agency.



This event raised more than $40,000 to support children and teens in our community.

Proceeds from Halos & Handbags are invested in the Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Scottsdale Angels for Kids, Mentors for Life campaign which benefits our more than 16,000 youth members.

Angels for Kids, Mentors for Life helps to support youth development programs for our Club kids and is built around five core areas: the arts, character & leadership development, education & career development, health & life skills, and sports,

With the continued help of Real Estate Agents like Sammy & Marlys, The Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Scottsdale we can continue to provide a safe, positive place for our youth to go both after-school and during the summer.
