Share the Dignity "Its In The Bag" 2025

Share the Dignity’s "It's in the Bag" campaign supports women in crises, who are homeless, at risk or are victims of domestic violence. 

Show her that she matters, because everyone deserves to feel that way.

Make a Donation:

The 2025 "It's in the Bag" campaign will run from 14th November - 30th November. During this time, we encourage the community to first choose a handbag in good condition that you no longer use. 

Then, fill it with items that would make a woman feel special, pop in a thoughtful note or Christmas card and show her someone cares.
