Donte’s Den Named Donation Beneficiary for Fashion Show Luncheon at Scout & Molly’s Boutique
Shop, dine, and do good! Join us for an exciting luncheon filled with fashion, a delicious four-course meal, and fundraising to support Donte’s Den Animal Sanctuary at Scout & Molly’s Boutique’s Fashion Show Luncheon!
On Tuesday, October 7, from 11:30 AM to 2 PM, Donte’s Den will be the featured fundraising recipient, with 15% of proceeds from boutique purchases donated to our sanctuary. The Fashion Show Luncheon will be held at Pascone’s Ristorante, located in the same retail center as Scout & Molly’s Boutique.
Scout & Molly’s Boutique features timeless staples as well as the latest statement pieces and accessories. Their stylists work diligently to help clients find trends in fashion that make them feel both beautiful and comfortable. The boutique also believes in the power of community and gives back to multiple charities throughout the year.
The Fashion Show Luncheon will showcase a full spectrum of clothing available for purchase at the boutique, and it will feature Lily, a sanctuary dog from Donte’s Den, who will be walking the runway.
The four-course luncheon, prepared by Pascone’s Ristorante, will include an artisanal garden salad, a pan-seared stuffed airline chicken breast, lemon mascarpone ravioli, and a delectable dessert of mango passion fruit dome.
Reservations for the luncheon can be made by calling 941-210-7368. The set price is $35 per attendee.
At this much-anticipated event, 15% of boutique purchases will be donated to Donte’s Den Animal Sanctuary.

About Donte’s Den Animal Sanctuary:
Donte’s Den is a 501(c)(3) animal welfare organization located in Myakka City, Florida, providing sanctuary for animals in need for over a decade. Spanning 50 acres near Lakewood Ranch, our facility is equipped with modern amenities—including a fully operational hospital to cater to both routine and urgent medical needs for our pets. Currently, we are home to 80 dogs, 20 farm animals, and 3 cats, alongside pets in long- and short-term boarding. Rather than traditional kennels, our dogs reside in spacious, air-conditioned dens designed to resemble comfortable living rooms, providing a serene environment with direct access to outdoor areas for fresh air. Our sanctuary emphasizes recreation and well-being, featuring amenities such as a therapeutic bone-shaped pool for supervised swimming.
