SWP Gives BackOne Man's Treasure Fundraiser“One Man's Treasure seeks to empower men recently released from prison who come to the Dallas and Fort Worth area by providing them with clothing and opportunities for networking. One Man’s Treasure, a 501 (c) 3 non-profit organization, is a simple but vital faith- based ministry that addresses the critical need for decent clothing faced by these returning men that will provide them with a sense of dignity and hope as they seek to change the course of their lives. Because of the support shown by our donors and volunteers, One Man’s Treasure has served a record of over 2030 men in 2021! By providing these men with essential clothing and referrals to other resources during the period of critical need, we assist them in changing the course of their lives long term. It is the goal of One Man’s Treasure to continue to help break the cycle of recidivism (return to prison) by helping to bring these often overlooked men successfully into the mainstream of our community.” Donate to ONE MAN'S TREASURE!The Wedding WishEach year Society of Wedding Professionals selects a local nonprofit to give back to, but SWP is proud to announce that we will be gifting a couple a loving and memorable wedding dream! Every day couples in the DFW (Dallas / Fort Worth) area become engaged and thousands wed each year. Understanding that there are many couples facing obstacles and unforeseen circumstances out of their control that prevent them from hosting a wedding, so SWP is setting out to make a difference in someone's life by granting them a wedding! One Belief, One Dream, One Team, One Purpose, One Celebration
