2023 was truly the Year of the Girl, and we’re so excited to keep that energy in 2024 and beyond. And what better way to do that than to ring in our second year of partnering with New Hope Girls?!
New Hope Girls is an incredible charitable organization based in the Dominican Republic. They are committed to fighting the trafficking and exploitation of women and girls by providing rescue, refuge, and restoration through fundraising efforts. With each style sold from our new collection, we support New Hope Girls in their efforts to work alongside local officials to rescue and advocate for girls by providing safe housing and meeting their physical, emotional, spiritual, judicial, therapeutic, and academic needs.
Together with New Hope Girls we’ve created all new designs for our second collaboration together to celebrate International Women’s Day in an impactful way that supports New Hope Girls and their important mission.
With each and every purchase of our three IWD styles, Pura Vida will donate 5% of the purchase price to New Hope Girls and the critical work they do. These pieces include the re-release of the classic International Women’s Day Bracelet, the International Women's Day Stretch Bracelet Set, and the International Women’s Day Style Pack that features four unique bracelets.
This collection wouldn’t be possible without the women and girls of New Hope Girls and their steadfast commitment to creating a better world. To ring in International Women’s Month right, we’ve compiled photos and testimonials to celebrate these women and all of the good that they do.
“What does International Women's Day mean to you personally? Are there any specific women who have inspired you in your life? How do you honor them on this day?”
"For me today is a very special day because I'm able to reflect on many things that I'm proud of, like my grandma and my mom. They taught me to be the person I am today. I am a fighter! A hard worker! And I'm capable of doing things that people told me that I would never be able to do!" - Dahiana
"Someone who symbolizes what it is to be empowered as a woman. I think of my mom because she taught me a lot of things. It's thanks to her that I know how to sew and I'm able to work here and be Created for More at New Hope Girls!” - Erika C.
"International Women's Day is a very special day and it's important because we know that we are free to fight for our dreams. We can both work and take care AND provide for our children. We can give more, and teach each other what we have learned from our own lives. That way we all keep learning! - Erika M
"My aunt is the woman who has inspired me because she has always been a fighter and is always in my corner. My daughter is also my inspiration. I work hard so that she can have a good upbringing and that she can also have a good future and know that she is Created for more.” - Someiry
