Bring in ANY gently used handbag to be donated to a woman in need!

“ The simple gift of a handbag can do so much to lift a woman’s spirits and it will also help her to look professional when she is interviewing for a much-needed job.”— Jerry Kohl Owner and Founder The Goal
Our 2019 goal is to collect 15,000 handbags to help 15,000 women in 10 days. Help us make a difference in their lives.

Many of us have the good fortune to own a number of handbags. Bring in any gently used handbag and we will donate it to a charity that caters to women for whom a new handbag may be the only luxury they have.



“ It’s a ‘win, win’ situation – I can help someone who’s taking steps toward success, plus get a discount on a stylish new Brighton bag that I need (or don’t need!).”— Anne H. Brighton Customer
