As Mother’s Day is quickly approaching, Harrisonburg Media Group & Style Encore have teamed up with First Step in Harrisonburg to collect new and gently used handbags!  In addition, you can also include essential items in the handbag that you would normally pack in a travel bag such as travel size bottles of shampoo, toothpaste, deodorant, and female hygiene items.

Do you have a handbag that you’re not using anymore (or a bunch of them)? Donate your handbags and essential items at the following locations:

  • Harrisonburg Media Group: 1820 Heritage Center Way in Harrisonburg. They can be dropped off Monday-Friday between 8:30a.m. and 4:30p.m.
  • Style Encore:  1790 E Market St Ste 144, Harrisonburg. They can be dropped off Monday-Saturday between 10a.m. and 8p.m. and Sunday between 11a.m. and 6p.m.

All donated handbags will be delivered to local moms being served at First Step, that could use some joy in time for Mother’s Day!
