Fashion designer Tracy Reese has teamed up with Fashion Fights Cancer to create a colorful limited edition tote bag.
The tote features a vibrant floral print and bold yellow and black leatherette straps and accents. These details are complemented by a round nameplate in the center which bears both the Tracy Reese and Fashion Fights Cancer logos.
All too often designers only give a percentage of their profits to charity, so I’m thrilled to see Tracy Reese being more generous. The designer will give 100% of the tote’s net proceeds to Fashion Fights Cancer. Funds raised will help develop therapeutic fashion and design programs to occupy cancer patients undergoing treatment and assist in Fashion Fights Cancer’s plans to build a wellness center in New York City.
We’re always cancer focused in October but it seems the disease falls by the wayside once that awareness month has passed. So it’s refreshing to see Tracy Reese bringing it back into the spotlight and doing her bit to raise funds for treatment programs and initiatives, even when it’s not popular to do so.
The limited edition Tracy Reese for Fashion Fights Cancer tote is affordably priced at $40. You’ll find it at Reese’s New York flagship store and her website.
