Issue 36: June 30, 2020
Hello Dears,
We’re pleased to bring you the fifth and final weekly issue of The Wrap this June! Today marks the conclusion of our month-long fundraising effort for the NAACP, and we couldn’t be more proud to donate a portion of June proceeds to one of our nation’s oldest civil rights organizations.
This donation, albeit modest, reflects our personal and professional commitments toward racial justice, equality, and true ally-ship. We pledged to back up our promises with vital action, and this initiative has been our first step. We look forward to more charitable efforts like this in the future, and we’re incredibly grateful to everyone who supported this cause all month long via e-commerce purchases and gift concierge services.
If you’d like to join our mission, today is the last day to make a qualifying purchase! A portion of all sales from The Gift Vault will go toward the NAACP for the next 24 hours, so put your dollars to work for a good cause and help us reach our donation goal!
You’ll find a handpicked edit of our Summer 2020 Bestsellers below…and all items from personalized beach towels to beaded sunglass chains, and straw sun hats are one-of-a-kind gifts perfect for any adult, teen, or child!
Additionally, your exclusive discount on our ever-popular Rainbow Earrings (pictured on Ashley, above) expires at midnight tonight, so make sure to order ASAP! These precious earrings are hand-beaded by one of our favorite (female and minority-owned) jewelry businesses, and the iconic rainbow design symbolizes diversity and harmony.
We love the idea of wearing this pair to celebrate LGBTQ+ rights this month (and all the time!) in honor of Pride. To unlock your $10 off discount, simply enter code “PRIDE” at checkout...and keep in mind that your purchase will also support the NAACP. What better way to support two great causes at once?!
Finally, we invite you to share your feedback as we begin to source specialty products for mid-late summer and early fall. What kinds of gifts, accessories, décor items, and jewelry pieces do you wish to see? How are we doing with our current price points?
We value your insights and welcome all constructive feedback. Our goal is to bring you truly unique, globally inspired and affordable pieces that you simply wouldn’t find at a department store or local boutique….and we want to know what you’d like to see more of!
As always, we love to see how you style your favorite Secretly Gifting purchases, so continue tagging us (@SecretlyGifting) to show us your pieces in action. Whether it’s a bag, hat, towel, earring, jean jacket, or candle, your photos always inspire us and spread light within the SG community.
We sincerely appreciate all of your support this month, and look forward to sharing more moments of joy with you this summer!
xo,
Ashley and Candace

A June to Remember
As this month comes to a close, we would like to extend our sincere thanks to everyone who supported our NAACP donation efforts. We made the decision to channel a portion of June proceeds to the NAACP in order to “show up” as individuals and business leaders for what is right and just.
That said, we would like you to know that closing this campaign does not symbolize an end to our efforts.
Instead, we see it as the humble beginning of a new mentality, refreshed set of business priorities, and long-term commitment towards inclusion and BIPOC support in our company's decision making.
We look forward to partnering with companies, brands, and individuals who share the same values proudly and publicly. And we intend to continue looking for the silver linings, and leaning into the small moments of joy and gratitude that light the way during these dark times.
We leave you with a new print from one of our favorite New York based artists, Ashleigh Verrier of Verrier Handcrafted. Her cards, prints, and accessories always lift our spirits thanks to their whimsical designs and messages of positivity and encouragement!
