The Undergarment Society’s BUS BOX:
GIve the Gift of Dignity This Holiday Season
The Undergarment Society is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit collecting new bras and underwear for girls and women escaping domestic violence, homelessness, trafficking, poverty, and other unsafe conditions. Since March 2017, they have donated over 6,000 new undergarments through its “Party with A Purpose” model, providing dignity to the Lowcountry’s most vulnerable citizens.
This summer, the Joanna Foundation granted the organization $10,000 towards the US BUS, a mobile donation center. A mobile donation center will reach more rural and underserved communities in South Carolina as well as allow for better control over inventory and distribution. Fitted to resemble a boutique, the US Bus will have the added benefit of giving those it serves with a dignified experience.
Introducing the Bus Box!.
The Bus Box is a donation collect campaign running from November 1-December 31st in order to raise an additional $10,000 for the US Bus. The Undergarment Society has 100 gift boxes to distribute to interested businesses and individuals throughout the Lowcountry. The Holiday Season is a time for family and friends to gather and give thanks. Calendars fill up fast with work parties, cocktail hours, and fetes of all kinds. Participants are asked to pass the box around during the holiday season, let the kids drop in quarters, and ask guests to contribute in the spirit of the giving season.
