Purses to Go, Community Outreach
In every woman’s closet is a gently used purse longing to be used.
For five years a group of Commerce City senior women have collected, filled and found a home for these purses stuffed with personal hygiene products.
These purses are filled with thoughtful products for women with no homes, are in transition, finding themselves in situations common to many women.
Distribution of these purses over the years has been thru many Adams County agencies including, Women’s Place , Comitis House, Stout Street Foundation, Brown Bag Ministries, Trinity Lutheran food bank, FISH food pantry, Community Outreach programs to name a few of recipients.
This program “Purse to Go” operates on community donations. We shop for the best price and never turn down offers of purses, hygiene products, or monetary donations.
Familiar toiletries are no longer in reach for women on the street. Personal care items taken for granted are luxuries to women in transition. These are symbols of everyday dignity.
