All profits from Just for the Helena of It will be donated to The Friendship Center and Girls Thrive. They will be able to use these funds at their discretion, to best serve their mission and the needs of the Helena community. With money raised, we will help The Friendship Center provide a safe haven for those affected by domestic violence, sexual assault, and stalking. We will help Girls Thrive inspire girls to empower themselves through a variety of physical activities and educational lessons designed to promote self-confidence, self-esteem, and positive body image.
