Love Your Genes Day Event a Success!

On Thursday, August 13th, the Shops at North Bridge held their highly-anticipated “Love Your Genes” denim event. Shoppers donated a pair of new or gently used jeans to the women of Deborah’s Place in exchange for discounts for new denim or other items at the Shops.

Hundreds of shoppers attended the event, which featured a fashion show with advice on what type of jeans look best on different body types.

Staff and tenants of Deborah’s Place also attended. Here, LaShon, one of the Deborah’s Place Divas, speaks to the crowd about Deborah’s Place.

Shoppers attached notes of encouragement to the jeans.

Deborah’s Place took back 189 pairs of jeans from the event! These will be distributed to the women we serve.

Thanks to the Shops at North Bridge for holding the event, and to everyone who donated their jeans to the ladies of Deborah’s Place!
