About
Join the Garland Chamber’s Women’s Business E-initiative as we hear from Garland Police Officer Felicia Jones on awareness and safety. Officer Jones will highlight strategies to help women avoid dangerous situations and explain why it is more important than ever to know how to protect oneself.
Presenting Sponsor:
Ladies…don’t forget your bras!
The WBe is proud to partner with The Salvation Army to support Free the Girls, an international non-profit organization devoted to helping survivors of sex trafficking answer the question of “What next?”
Every WBe event is an opportunity for you to donate new and gently used bras, sports bras, camisoles, bralettes and maternity/nursing bras to the cause.
Free the Girls’ Bra-Selling Initiative began from a recognition that trafficking survivors need a dignified way to make money while transitioning from exploitation to the rest of their lives. The second-hand clothing market in the developing world is a thriving sector, and though it’s not a perfect system, it does prevent clothing in the landfill and, most importantly, gives a woman the opportunity to run her own business.
A t-shirt will be given to all those who donate.
