Evolution Yoga supports the Clothes Exchange

The Clothes Exchange is an opportunity to feel good about shopping!

The Clothes Exchange combines shopping and philanthropy in a rare win-win. Exchange Event organizers collect and sell quality clothing from well-dressed women and new clothing from generous retailers. The merchandise is all sorted, priced and sold at Clothes Exchange events. Profits from Exchange Events benefit nonprofit organizations whose work is dedicated to improving women’s lives.

The Clothes Exchange was born in 2001, when a group of 15 fashion conscious, community minded women got together in Burlington, Vermont to swap the clothes they once loved, but rarely ever wore. At that first event, Leslie, the Founder of The Clothes Exchange, recognized the opportunity to turn the gathering into a force for social change. The child of entrepreneurs, Leslie quickly recognized the opportunity to turn the gathering into a revenue generator. A natural philanthropist, Leslie decided to donate the money to charity – and The Clothes Exchange was born.

This year the money supports Vermont Works for Women, who’s mission is to help women and girls explore, pursue and excel in nontraditional careers that pay a livable wage.

Evolution is a proud sponsor of this event, among other gifts from Seventh Generation, On-Track, Sweet Lady Jane and more- you could win a $500 gift certificate to Evolution by buying a Clothes Exchange raffle ticket.  Raffle tickets are on sale at the studio and at the event!

We’ll see you at the Clothes Exchange-Thursday, May 7!

Namaste!
