Gowns for a Cause is a new non-profit 501(c)3 community service organization whose story began in 2013. We collect donations of new and like-new bridal and formal gowns and accessories that are rented in our bridal boutique in Edinburg TX & online. The money raised from both the boutique and the online rentals along with monetary donations helps us fulfill our mission. Our boutique not only offers a chance to less fortunate women, but it provides our shoppers the amazing opportunity to shop for a worthy cause, while also renting their dream gown at a fraction of the cost!
