Purses for a Purpose

Join us for an evening of light hors d’oeuvres, an open bar and amazing purses!

Tote, satchel, clutch or hobo — whatever style handbag you favor, you can find it at Purses with a Purpose. A signature COMPASS (Sexual Assault Education, Prevention & Support) (COMPASS) event, Purses with a Purpose kicks off Sexual Assault Awareness Month with an online purse auction and a culminating in-person celebration from 5:30 to 8 p.m. April 3 at the Cultural Center for the Arts in downtown Canton.

The auction will have a wide selection of purses, bags and totes to bid on — and each bag is filled with mystery items with a minimum value of $50!

Proceeds raised from Purses for a Purpose will support crisis intervention and advocacy support, along with the purchase of comfort kits, journals and other healing items for survivors of sexual assault.
