“She/SHE” Charity Clothing Event [December 9th-15th]

Our 1st Annual She/SHE Charity Event was a great success! On the Rise was overwhelmed by the amount of wonderful items we donated to their shelter, most of which was clothing (and what great clothing it was!) Lots of female Topazians took part, as did several fellas. We’ll do this again next year for sure! Please visit www.ontherise.org if you’d like to know more about this great Cambridge organization. [As of 12/16, On the Rise is in particular need of bedding, linens, towels, and sleeping bags.]

Join Topaz for our 1st Annual She/SHE Charity Clothing Drive. It’s a benefit for On the Rise Woman’s Shelter in Cambridge. Bring in an article of woman’s winter clothing in good condition (or other donatable item listed below) December 9th-15th and receive 15% off your Topaz purchase of $30 or more.

On The Rise supports the initiative and strength of women living in crisis or homelessness. In a physically and psychologically safe environment, we build the relationships and provide the tools that each woman needs to rise to her potential.
