Green Eileen celebrates one year of giving through fashion in Seattle

Green Eileen celebrates one year of giving through fashion in Seattle
Happy Anniversary to Green Eileen, the non-profit arm of fashion designer Eileen Fisher, which accepts and re-sells gently-worn Eileen Fisher designer clothes. This unique store in Seattle s Columbia City neighborhood opened one year ago this month, with a promise of giving its proceeds away to non-profits that support women, girls and sustainable living. Over the past year, Green Eileen has donated more than $50,000 to eight different non-profits and given away $4600 worth of beautiful designer clothes to nine additional organizations.

NOTE: This weekend (April 5 & 6), Green Eileen will celebrate its one-year anniversary in Seattle with a sale that benefits Bike Works, a non-profit dedicated to supporting bicycle education for children and teens. Shoppers will enjoy a $20 discount all weekend, but the first fifty customers each day will receive additional gifts. Green Eileen is located at 4860 Rainier Ave. South. Sale hours: Saturday from 10:00am 7:00pm and Sunday from 10:00am 5:00pm.

Megan Renaud and Kerri Ulloa from Green Eileen joined New Day Northwest on April 13, 2013 to share the store s mission and showcase some of the fashions available at the store and spotlight Jubilee Women s Center, the first non-profit to benefit from its unique mission.
