International Women’s Day: Shop and give back with these fashion brands
Support women’s organizations with next time you shop!
With March being Women’s History Month and March 8 marking International Women’s Day, we’re excited to highlight all things having to do with female empowerment. While supporting female-led brands is already a step ahead, it’s twice as rewarding supporting brands that support others. That said, many fashion labels are partnering up with women’s charities and organizations and giving back whether it be with a percentage of proceeds or full donations.
And while we believe every day is women’s day, ahead, we’ve rounded up some of the brands that are giving back this month!
