Got Your Back Sista – Giving Back to Women!

in Giving Back on 03/03/16

What an amazing way to start the preloved fashion shopping year! Last Sunday over 600 women raided 50 wardrobes of beautiful fashion – on such a hot day too!

This is why we love what we do for you:

  • We love organising events where you can declutter your wardrobe of gorgeous fashion and get cash for it. 

 

  • We love coordinating shopping expeditions where you can buy designer pieces for amazing prices. 

 

  • We love creating experiences where the Raid My Wardrobe community can come together and support other women in need and feel good about it. 

The Raid My Wardrobe community love a good preloved find and I love it when you all show me what you have discovered. I heard about a Marc Jacobs tote leather bag for $10, silk tops for $5 a pieces and gorgeous leather knee high boots for $10.

Lucy from Your Happy Healthy Life shares her finds from Sunday

‘7 tops, 2 dresses, a scarf, belt and 3 necklaces for about $85! Not bad 🙂 ….fun morning to myself, dress ups and giving these threads a new home = priceless! – Lucy

At last Sunday’s event  some 300kgs of clothing items and personal care items were donated by the Raid My Wardrobe community to the Got Your Back Sista charity which will be distributed to women in local refuges.

“Rachel, thank you so much for your efforts to support some of our most vulnerable women in society and for drawing awareness and donation support from the community. You’re an inspiration.”Melissa Histon (Founder The Sista Code) 

Until next time, declutter, buy preloved, support other sistas and always remember that – ‘You’re Amazing!’ 

Yours in all things preloved,
