J. Jill Compassion Fund: Committed to Helping Women

We all know how J.Jill cares about women looking their best! But they care about so much more — J. Jill is committed to women’s issues and helping women across the country!

The J.Jill Compassion Fund was founded in 2002 and is committed to providing support to community- based organizations that help disadvantaged and homeless women regain their independence through programs that focus on education, job skills and transitional and affordable housing. The J.Jill Compassion Fund has donated more than $6 million to over 60 organizations across the country.

All Things Chic was so pleased to host a J. Jill Compassion Fund event in our local J.Jill in the King of Prussia Mall  for an event benefiting the Women’s Community Revitalization Project. We fell in love with the mission of WCRP right away! They are committed to social and economic equity for low-income women and their families. They develop housing; provide supportive services; advocate for policy change; and honor leadership, dignity, and justice in our communities. As part of this event, the WCRP brought a group of women to the J. Jill store to get a head-to-toe makeover in J. Jill clothes – perfect for interview outfits and work outfits!

Whitney did a great job helping the women pick out outfits that really fit their personal style!

There are so many great styles at J. Jill this season to really get your work wardrobe looking chic! Whitney focused on helping the women find pieces that were super versatile – a blouse that can be paired with everything from jeans to a pencil skirt, sleek black pants that can be dressed up or down, and accessories that can dress up a simple sweater and leggings!

We thought they looked amazing, don’t you?
