When you donate to Purses With a Purpose, you’re not just giving away items — you’re helping women rebuild their lives. Every toothbrush, bottle of shampoo, and purse collected becomes a symbol of hope and a tool for empowerment.
Your contributions directly support women who are transitioning out of shelters, escaping domestic violence, or overcoming homelessness. Many of these women arrive at shelters with little more than the clothes they’re wearing. A simple purse filled with essentials can provide immediate relief and restore dignity.
We partner with organizations across Idaho to ensure every donation reaches those who need it most. These partnerships allow us to focus on direct impact, delivering purses monthly to local shelters and outreach centers.
The ripple effect of your donation goes far beyond one purse. It represents:
-
Confidence: A fresh start begins with feeling prepared and presentable.
-
Care: Hygiene items and personal touches remind women that they are valued.
-
Community: Each purse carries the support of dozens of people who care.
Your donations help survivors feel seen and supported in their journey to recovery. One recipient shared, “I didn’t just receive a purse; I received hope. Someone believed in me before I could believe in myself.”
Every dollar, every item, every volunteer hour adds up to create meaningful change. Together, we are breaking the cycle of isolation and replacing it with compassion and connection.
