With an increase of homelessness in Massachusetts, Kim Gentry Meyers, Mrs. Massachusetts America and Lilly Pulitzer will host a Shop and Share Event for Belonging To Each Other on Feb. 27, 2021, at all Lilly Pulitzer clothing boutiques throughout the state. In Massachusetts, the number of people experiencing homelessness and housing instability remains very high. Of the 18,471 people counted as experiencing homelessness, 917 people were identified as veterans.
On Feb. 27, Lilly Pulitzer of Massachusetts will donate 10% of all proceeds to Belonging To Each Other. Shoppers will also have an opportunity to meet Kim Gentry Meyers, Mrs. Massachusetts America from 11:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m. at 18 Market Street in Mashpee and from 2-3 p.m. at 199 Main Street in Falmouth. Social distance guidelines will be enforced at all times.
“This event is so important because this continues to be an issue especially now during COVID-19 where so many in the community are losing their jobs and homes due to our struggling economy,” said Mrs. Massachusetts. “I’m so thrilled that an amazing brand like Lilly Pulitzer has agreed to partner with me to help our community.”
“Attendees will be offered a special gift with purchase,” said Meredith Walantis, Store Manager at the Mashpee Commons location. “We are excited to host this event for a great cause.”
