WALK WITH SALLY’S MISSION
“Walk With Sally is dedicated to lessening the burden of cancer for children and families through critical programs and services through mentorship, mental health support, art healing, and financial empowerment. ”
Who Is She Wearing (WISW) is proud to be the official sponsor of the Walk With Sally Shoppe—a unique store where we put the HOPE in Shoppe. A portion of all WISW proceeds, along with donated clothing and accessories, goes directly to supporting the Shoppe. This special store provides families impacted by cancer with access to everyday essentials, empowering them during challenging times. Every purchase through WISW not only makes a stylish statement but also extends a helping hand to those in need, ensuring families facing cancer can find support and hope.
ABOUT
Walk With Sally is a Southern California-based nonprofit organization committed to supporting children and families impacted by cancer. Founded in 2004, it provides essential services such as one-on-one mentoring, mental health support, art healing, and financial aid to help alleviate the emotional and psychological toll cancer can take on children. With a presence in over 34 cities, including Los Angeles, Newport Beach, and El Segundo, Walk With Sally aims to ensure that no child has to face cancer alone. Since 2022, Tash Brooks has led the organization as CEO, continuing its mission to empower families and create a supportive, compassionate community for those dealing with cancer’s challenges.
WHERE EXACTLY DOES YOUR DONATION THROUGH PURCHASE GO?
Who Is She Wearing (WISW) is deeply committed to supporting families impacted by cancer through its partnership and sponsorship of the Walk With Sally Shoppe, where families heavily impacted by cancer can access clothing, accessories, and essential items for school and daily survival. The initiative goes beyond providing items; every purchase made on the WISW platform helps fund this effort. The donations generated through these purchases directly contribute to shipping donated items to families in need and help stock the store with vital resources. By purchasing through WISW, customers actively participate in supporting these families during their most challenging times.
Additionally, WISW extends the impact of its sustainability mission by donating unsold items and select pieces from Beau Dunn’s Closet to the Walk With Sally Shoppe. This gives fashion pieces and accessories a new purpose, helping families who otherwise might not have access to these essentials. Every contribution not only helps sustain the store but also reinforces the cycle of giving back, allowing fashion to make a tangible difference in the lives of those affected by cancer.
