Today’s Helping Hero is Dillard’s at Stony Point!

Picture this: a red carpet VIP superstar shopping spree for 11 childhood cancer heroes and their families. In preparation for the Heroes Art Ball on Friday May 9, Dillard’s at Stony Point hosted a personal shopping experience. The heroes and their siblings picked out glitzy dresses and dapper suits to wear when they take center stage at the Heroes Art Ball.

After the big day, hero parents flooded Jillian’s phone with texts like these…

“My family had a blast… the day was magical. I got teary watching the other kids. They were so beautiful. You did an amazing job.”

“The balloon guy. The donuts. The candy baskets. The balloon arch and red carpet. We felt like VIPs at a fashion event. Thank you for the special experience.”

Shoutout to Dayna, Connor’s Heroes Community Engagement Queen, for partnering with Dillard’s to make this happen! And to the sponsors and guests coming to the Heroes Art Ball. Your sponsorships and ticket purchases covered the cost of this VIP experience for the hero families.

Hero Families: Aina, Archer, Ava, Journey, Kasen, Logan, Ruby, Tallulah, Xaria
