Values Inside Out is a visionary partnership program matching Sephora stores across America with non-profit organizations in their own communities. Under this program, each store’s team of cast members (Sephora’s term for sales associates) chose a local non-profit to help through raising awareness, providing funds and contributing their own “sweat equity” to aide that organization in fulfilling its mission over the course of 2013.
