Dermsilk.com, a leading retailer of premium skin care products headquartered in Los Angeles, California, have teamed up with the Downtown Women's Center (DWC), a transformational women's empowerment organization focused exclusively on serving and empowering women experiencing homelessness and formerly homeless women.
"Having access to products like these, to practice the ritual of self-care, is a truly powerful gift that aligns perfectly with our mission at DWC: getting all women in Los Angeles on a path to personal stability," said Jessica Suarez, donor relations manager at DWC.
Dermsilk.com donated over $12,000 worth of skin care products to serve as holiday gifts for the women who live in the 119 units of permanent supportive housing in The City of Angels.
"We found out about DWC through friends of our family and we were truly moved by their founder's story. Additionally, they're the only women's organization we've ever heard of that seeks to help unaccompanied women over the age of 55 in the Southern California region," said Alex Nazarian, CEO and cofounder of Dermsilk.com. "We wanted to give back to our community in a meaningful way that only our business was positioned to do, donating to DWC was a great way to help us achieve that goal."
The donation of leading skincare products included brands Dermsilk.com stocks like Obagi, Neocutis, SkinMedica, Sentéand Elta MD – all of whom helped make the donation possible.
