2017 Valentine's Day Stay Solid Bags

This year we wanted to do something solid for Valentine's Day.

We used the "solid giveback fund" along with generous personal donations to make Valentine's Day Bags for the women at the Downtown Women's Center.

DWC is a nonprofit in downtown LA who helps homeless women get off the streets and back into the work force. They provide supportive housing and a safe community that fosters dignity, respect, and personal stability. Their mission is to advocate ending homelessness for women so they provide many services including computer skills, job training, etc.

Each year, DWC provides
- 100,000 meals
- 40,000 changes of clothes (3,000 loads of laundry)
- 20,000 showers

Inside the "Solid Bags" we included a Valentine's Day card, candy, and snacks along with personal hygiene and personal care products like tooth brushes, hair ties, hair combs, chapstick, hand sanitizer, shampoo, conditioner, lotion, makeup and feminine products . ❤️

We also collected gently worn clothes to donate to the Downtown Women's Center as well.

Stephanie Lee set the personal record for 15 bags of clothes, shoes and purses.

It was a "solid Sunday" indeed! None of this would have been possible without the continued support of those who purchase the clothing line and our friends Raquel and Stephanie.

We hope that more people join us in the Solid Movement to stay solid and giveback!
