YWCA's Open Your Purse Event for Charity

I recently attended and volunteered for the 7th annual YWCA Open Your Purse event, which was held on Wednesday, Sept 21 at the Georgia Aquarium, located in Atlanta, GA.

Make a difference in the lives of Atlanta’s women and children by attending the 7th annual YWCA Open Your Purse event presented by Belk. The event raises funds and awareness for the YWCA of Greater Atlanta’s Women in Transition (WIT) Supportive Housing program.

The event will showcase hundreds of handbags donated by Belk (and other retailers), designers and high-profile individuals. read more

The event showcased hundreds of handbags donated by Belk (and other retailers, including Gucci, Louis Vuitton, Michael Kors, Prada, and P.Sherrod & Company).

Designers and attendees were present to raise funds and awareness for the YWCA of Greater Atlanta’s Women in Transition (WIT) Supportive Housing program.

This live and silent auction was a wonderful event! If you missed it this year, then be sure to attend next year! It warms my heart to know so many women who "open their purses" to support other women in need. There's nothing like being able to give back.
