girls-inc [1]EILEEN FISHER Supports Girls Inc. Of Sarasota County.
 
EILEEN FISHER, a brand known for beautifully simple clothes designed to move with real life, announced their partnership with Girls Inc. of Sarasota County.

 Shoppers are invited to visit the store on February 19, from 1:00pm – 4:00pm for Hors d’oeuvres and champagne, and will receive $25 off of all purchases.  10% of the proceeds from the day’s sales will benefit Girls Inc. of Sarasota County. 
 
EILEEN FISHER has supported Girls Inc. since 2005 when company founder and chief creative officer, Eileen Fisher, was invited to participate in a Girls Inc. panel discussion in New York City, to which she brought her teenaged daughter, Sasha. Both were struck by the self confidence and poise displayed by the Girls Inc. girls.  Fisher was moved by the Girls Inc. mission of ‘Inspiring all girls to be strong, smart, and bold.’ “It resonated with me instantly,” said Fisher.  “It is vital to encourage these traits in all girls and to encourage girls to bring their full selves to every thing they do.” 
 
The store hopes to foster leadership in young women through self-empowerment, connection with others and activism in their communities, through community partnerships such as the one with Girls Inc. of Sarasota County. 

EILEEN FISHER is located in the Pineapple Square shopping center in downtown Sarasota at 1501 Main Street.
