Raise money through handbags

Thank you for thinking of 1154 LILL STUDIO as a fitting donor for your organization. While we recognize your need and understand the exposure benefits of partnering with your organization, we regret that we are unable to accept any more proposals for the year of 2008. Even though we would like nothing more than to help, unfortunately we receive more requests than we have budget to accommodate. If you would like to submit your request to be considered for a Fundraising By Design party in 2009, click here. We wish you all the best and much success throughout the year.

1154 LILL Studio’s “Fundraising By Design” (FBD) program allows you to raise money for your group while indulging your guests in a creative, social and fashionable activity – shopping and designing one-of-a-kind LILL handbags together! LILL will donate a percentage of your event's sales to your charity organization. Events may take place in our stores or at a location of your choice in one of our LILL on Location cities.

It is the goal of 1154 LILL to provide customers with not only an exceptional and unique handbag, but also an interactive, creative and memorable experience.  By offering a percentage of Handbag Party event sales, (vs. traditional product or gift certificate donations) we are better able to align our donation policy with our mission statement and core values.  We are proud that this allows the worthy organizations in our communities the opportunity to more directly impact the level of contribution they receive. The donation 1154 LILL STUDIO makes to the organization will be in lieu of the traditional Hostess Discount normally offered at our parties.

Get started:

1) Propose a fundraising By Design event idea – Fill out an Event Request Form
2) Invite your guests or members*
3) Shop or Design LILL Bags together – have fun for a good cause
4) Receive a percentage of sales for your organization
*Please note: Events must first be approved, and an Event Contract signed by both 1154 LILL and the requesting organization.
