Calling all New Yorkers who believe design can change the world! Tomorrow night, Friday December 5th, join us as we head to Brooklyn for Project H Design’s GIFTING FOR GOOD holiday party at Cornichon, from 7-11pm. The event will help support their New York Chapter and the local Women In Need Family Shelter. Local designers will be selling their wares from jewelry to accessories, ceramics, papergoods and t-shirts, with $1 for every $5 spent going to fund household items for the women at the shelter. There will be drink specials, you can make donations to Project H on behalf of loved ones for the holidays- And Inhabitat will be there, too, selling T-shirts and bags and other great green gifts from our shop!
Project H will also have shwag for sale or free with a donation, and cheap drink specials. RSVP HERE via Facebook, or just show up at Cornichon from 7-11pm. Bring your holiday shopping spirit and a few bucks for a good cause (cash or check only please!). Check out all the details and more vendor info over at Project H.
Last year my 3-generation family chose to forego drawing names and instead donate the same money to local non profits. I sent contributions to the local women’s rape crisis center, a homeless shelter and a center for unwed mothers. I felt like I had finally done Christmas right. Instead of buying gifts for people who had everything and would likely be tossed out in the near future, I contributed to the needs of people in dire need. Their appreciation was truly gratifying.
