Turning something old into something new for Mary’s Place in Kitchener

April 1, 2011 - PRLog -- The staff at ENVIE Intimates know the importance of well-fitting foundational wear and this April no bra will be left behind. The newest intimate apparel retailer, located in Kitchener’s Sportsworld Crossing shopping plaza, will be asking women in the region to drop off their used, still in good condition bras at their store location during the month of April. These bras will then be donated to Mary’s Place in Kitchener.

“When our staff (including myself) was trained to professionally fit women with the right bra, we were all pleasantly surprised to see the transformation in how we looked and carried ourselves,” says ENVIE’s Public Relations Director, Melissa Hanans. “Every woman deserves to feel that confidence and we are so pleased to donate some of our bras to the women in need at Mary’s Place.”

The general public is encouraged to donate as many bras as they wish, new or used, any style, and size; mastectomy, nursing and training bras are also acceptable. As long as the bra has been freshly washed and in good condition, donating customers are welcome to treat themselves to a new bra purchase at ENVIE while saving the HST.

“We always look forward to the generous and creative promotions from local businesses,” says Elizabeth Clarke, Executive Director of YWCA Kitchener-Waterloo. “The women at Mary’s Place deserve well fitting bras, and recycling gently used ones for those who really need them is a wonderful way to give back to the community.”

For more information on April’s bra donation, visit ENVIE Intimates or call (519)219-3111 to speak with a staff representative. To see a preview of ENVIE’s merchandise, please visit www.envieintimates.com.
