International Women’s Day is March 8, 2019. It's a day to recognize the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women. It is all about unity, celebration, reflection, advocacy and action.
In honor of the amazing women who inspire us everyday, Ridge Merino is proud to donate 50 percent of sales from its website to Breast Cancer Prevention Partners (BCPP), a leading nonprofit organization working to empower women and to prevent breast cancer before it starts.
All purchases made on the Ridge website this Friday, March 8, will automatically be included as part of the charitable contribution to BCPP. In addition, Ridge invites everyone to share their stories of inspiring women by tagging @ridge_merino, @bcppartners and using the hashtags #WomenEmpoweringWomen #IWD2019 on Instagram on March 8.
