care can change
what comes next.
A place
to begin.
Through trusted community partners, women are invited to a personal appointment at Shine’s New York City showroom.
Time.
Just for her.
Someone to listen. A personal shopper alongside her. Space to consider what she and her family need.
Chosen by her. Given with care.
Brand-new clothing, personal care, children’s necessities and household essentials. Selected by her, provided at no cost.
It began
with a promise.
Susie Nussbaum Domb
Founder, Shine Foundation
“Every woman deserves to be treated with dignity.”
After losing her husband while expecting her fourth child, Susie experienced the difference a caring community can make.
Shine grew from her promise to offer another woman the compassion and practical support that helped her own family move forward.
