Jubilee Women's Center Event On Saturday, May 13th, we're having a fundraising sale to benefit Jubilee Women's Center, a local org that helps women experiencing poverty.

As usual, a portion of every sale will go to them. And on April 30th, we'll give 10% to them, and offer 10% off everything in the store! The chimps at the sanctuary are rescues from the entertainment and biomedical industries. Since being rescued, they've thrived and formed terrific social bonds with each other in their new, enriched home.
Spring is just over a week away, even though it might not feel like it. But the clocks turned forward yesterday and crocuses and daffodils are starting to bloom. We're getting lots of new spring items in as well. We now carry Vegetarian Shoes, a shoe company from England. Lur Apparel arrived last week too. They recycle pre-consumer apparel waste and turn it into amazing clothing!
On March 25th we're having our monthly sale and fundraiser. Sky's the Limit Sanctuary is our non-profit of the month and it will be great to have founders Shannon and Ryan in the store to talk about the work they do with rescued hens. Drop by and enjoy 10% off everything. We'll have snacks too and 10% of all sales goes to Sky's the Limit! Win-win! We're nearing the end of the month of February. So hard to believe! We had a fun and successful Galentine's Day pop-up with snacks provided by Fauxmage, Seattle Cookie Counter, and Honor Society Coffee. We showcased local artists and had a lot of fun socializing.

We're offering 10% discounts on everything in the store and we'll donate 10% of the day's totals to Days for Girls, an org that empowers girls and women around the world by providing sustainable feminine hygiene products. This simple act helps girls stay in school, reduces child marriages, and helps prevent human trafficking. We're getting spring items already, in so it's a good time for a sneak peek of what the new season holds. Hope to see you on Saturday! I hope your New Year is off to a good start. It's nearing the end of the month and that means it's time for our fundraising event day. This month Cupid's Landing is our non-profit.
