We get behind local, national and global issues that our supporters and donors believe in!

Our charitable contributions of over $3 million is making an impact in the lives of millions of women across the globe! 

Our Gifts

Each year, Brides for a Cause disperses hundreds of thousands of dollars that are raised from reselling the donated wedding gowns to various women’s causes. All monetary gifts are approved by our board of directors. Most gift amounts are between $10,000-$50,000.

In 2024, with the opening of our new San Diego store, we gifted a record-breaking amount of $550,000 to 52 local and national nonprofits! We were also able to invest funds into the local community by donating to several women’s shelters and women’s centers in each area of our boutiques!

In 2023, we hit the half-million mark for the first time ever in a year, donating $500,000 to 45 local and national nonprofit women focused charities in 2023 that are supporting, protecting and propelling women forward!

In 2022, with COVID behind us, we were able to get our donations back up, donating $450,000 to 40 different women focused nonprofits!

To date, we’ve raised over $3,000,000 for women’s causes and counting!

Donating or purchasing from Brides for a Cause makes a difference!
