Whims and Violet happily donates 1% of all sales to WISH, a drop-in centre society working to improve the health, safety and well-being of women who are involved in Vancouver’s street-based sex trade.
FAQ
Why do you donate a percentage of your sales instead of profits?
Profits fluctuate based on our own operating costs and can be too variable for a charity to rely on. By donating a percentage of our sales, rather than profits, we can guarantee donations for WISH each time we make a sale.
You are located on Vancouver Island; how come you don’t donate to a Vancouver Island-based charity?
We first started donating to WISH while living in Vancouver and witnessing the struggle of those living on the DTES. Since moving back to the island, we still feel this is an extremely important cause and want to continue supporting the society as long as we can. Supporting women both in business and need is a core mission at W+V, regardless of where they live.
