Our Story

 

FASHION WITH PURPOSE

We offer a solution for brands to use their excess inventory to make an impact through sustainability & philanthropy.

A NEW DEDICATION TO GIVING

Jeannie Barsam is no stranger to dedicating her life to giving back. Over the course of her 30-year journey in Fashion & Retail, Jeannie travelled the world, worked for some of the best and most-loved brands, and mentored countless women (and men) along the way.

While working as an executive at Zale’s, part of Signet Jewelers and the world’s largest retailer of diamonds, Jeannie was tasked with finding a nonprofit recipient for their excess
inventory. Remarkably, after researching countless nonprofits, Jeannie was perplexed by being unable to find an organization who could accept their excess inventory, so she met the challenge head on.

AND JUST LIKE THAT, THE IDEA FOR GIFTING BRANDS WAS BORN, ultimately setting Jeannie on a new path of 100% dedication to women, children and giving back. Jeannie’s new vision for Inventory Philanthropy® created a process that enables brands to donate excess inventory and make adirect global and environmental impact for good. Gifting Brands launched an eCommerce marketplace www.giftingbrands.com where brands donate excess inventory, consumers shop at discounted prices and proceeds go directly to causes that empower and support women and children. Customers are thrilled that they can make an impact by shopping brands they love!

As founder and CEO of Gifting Brands, Jeannie Barsam’s vision for giving is only the beginning.

In just over two years, Gifting Brands has positively impacted many women, children, and families locally and globally.

Amazing brands from the beginning have joined us in making an impact. Without their support, we would not be able to complete our mission.
