Purse Impressions

Patricia ran the charity from her Cave Creek home for the first year, receiving numerous purse donations including samples from The SAK in New York. Running out of space, she opened Purse-Impressions Charity Boutique in September 2020, selling purses in front while operating the charity from the back—right in the middle of the pandemic.

The Boutique quickly became a special place. The sisterhood of the Traveling Purse as Patricia calls it. Not only does each purse donation have a story, (wore this to my daughter’s wedding, took this one on a cruise, etc.) each person donating has a story too. Once someone hears about Courtney and her idea they feel comfortable to share who in their life has been affected by addiction. We all know someone…

The Boutique, and the charity, is completely run by volunteers with all the proceeds going directly to support Purse-Impressions various programs. We have touched over 5,000 lives through the generosity of the amazing purse and jewelry donations we receive.
