Daughter's Cotillion & Gala 2014 Scholarships and Continued Success

  

Recognizing and Celebrating the Success of Daughters of Destiny High School Graduates.

We truly celebrated our girls endeavors, and presented our Daughters College Scholarships at the Cotillion & Gala on Saturday, July 26, 2014 at the Doubletree by Hilton at 4500 Cypress Ave., Tampa, Florida, 33607 from 7:00pm-10:00pm.

The Cotillion Gala 2014 was 'A Night to Remember". Miss Shacha was our Mr. G. LeGrande Scholarship recipient . Miss Ketnie was our 100% GPA Scholar with the most improved GPA score and Miss Kiearra was the Outstanding Rose Graduate  with her 6.3 GPA. Miss Kiearra missed the Cotillion Gala because she has begin to attend her College of choice to begin her journey to become a Pediatrician. We had outstanding sponsors and event assistance for Daughters Cotillion Gala 2014 and the evening was exceptional!

Many people see the gowns and the smiles but will never know what these girls have overcome to" Walk in White" you will not hear what they suffered or how they have survived. I would say to you what I often say to them," It doesn't matter where you came from! What matters is where you're going!" Its so challenging to get them to focus on what they're walking towards without looking backwards. We strive to get them to walk towards success and walk away from the brokenness of their past

 

Daughter's Cotillion & Gala 2014

These Daughters of Destiny members enjoyed a night of honor, recognition, and memories that they will forever share. We enjoyed great food, dancing, and elegance. For many of our young ladies this was their first time dressing so elegantly. For some of their escorts it was the first time they were dressed in formal tuxeudos. Father escorted daughters in and formally introduced them for the beginning of an evening that was simply stated 'A Night to Remember." As the girls danced the night away with their fellow daughter's sister's, escorts, and family members we just couldn't believe how beautiful they all looked and how much fun they all seemed to be having. As challenging as preparing and fund raising for this Cotillion Gala was there was nothing that compared to the joy, beauty, and wonder that these young ladies expressed as they walked into this Ballroom and were formally introduced by their Father's and Father figures for the first time in their lives. High school graduates and Daughter's members who were level graduating and then the "Cote'De' Tate' the 'Cross Over Ceremony with their Mother's and Mother Figures was so tastefully done. Words can't express the tears flowing, and loving words that were exchanged between father's and daughter's and mother's and daughters on this elegant and touching evening. Photo's were taken by Joe's Photos of Tampa and they are magnificent! go online to view them and purchase them at www.joephototampa.com.    One thing is for sure Daughters' Cotillion Gala 2014 was and will always be a night to remember
