Beginning as far back as December 1988 the first Saturday in December has
been designated for the Assistant League of Pueblo's Holiday Fashion
Preview, our largest annual fundraiser. This year we will be celebrating our
32nd year on December 4th, 2021 at the Pueblo Convention Center. This
major holiday event attracts about 700 attendees all helping to support
Operation School Bell. The event includes live entertainment, silent auction
items, a unique holiday gift boutique, a student parade singing the Operation
School Bell song and a professional style show by Dillard's & Pueblo Mall. The
emcee for the event is local legend Craig Eliot, former KOAA-TV newscaster. It
is just a wonderfully fun event for anyone wanting to support children in
need within the Pueblo community (city and county).
This fundraiser is one of the major sources of funding for Operation School
Bell; which offers new school clothes, hygiene kits and books to elementary
and middle school children in need within Pueblo City and Pueblo County
school districts. We are making a positive impact on the Pueblo community
one child at a time through Operation School Bell. All proceeds stay within
. the Pueblo community.
