Join us for... wine, cheese, shopping, fun, and be sure to bring your gently worn (or new) professional attire/accessories for donation.
WHEN? Thursday, October 1st, 5-8pm (drop-in.)
Donations will also be accepted for one week following the event, during store hours.
WHY/HOW? The Hingham Gift Company plans to donate your professional attire to Dress for Success Boston, a nonprofit organization working to promote the economic independence of disadvantaged women in our area. Today's job market is challenging for all of us, and even more so for disadvantaged women. Let's get some great professional clothes and accessories together to help other women put their best foot forward. And we all know our closets could use some cleaning out.
