Pub 2 2022 Issue 1

WOMEN BOUTIQUE partners, they have up to one year to do the shopping and receive help putting together the best outfits from volunteers at the boutique. When the in-person shopping ended in March 2020 due to the pandemic, the hygiene kits were the “star of the show” from March 2020 to June 2021. As of June 2021, the boutique is back open and running to shop for outfits again. During this past fiscal year through the pandemic, 379 individuals were helped by Women Helping Women. Now that things are re-opening again, they expect even more women to be helped this upcoming year and beyond. How can you contribute? Right now, the Women Helping Women boutique is asking for you to donate your time to volunteer. There are about 12 committee members on the Women Helping Women committee of the Junior League of Salt Lake City, each with their own full-time jobs, families, and lives. To open the boutique for a shopping shift, there needs to be at least 2 volunteers. You can contribute to work a shift by signing up on www.jlslc.org. Junior League members who donate time to help at the boutique are most valuable in this operation. The Women Helping Women clothing boutique provides professional clothing to local women entering the workplace and getting back on their feet. The boutique originated from a project where an individual provided clothes to students at the University of Utah. It eventually became the boutique we know today and has helped hundreds of local women yearly. 13
