The Taranaki Women's Refuge Pop-Up Shop clothing drive officially kicks off on Monday, March 31, 2025. Centre City is excited to be one of the official collection points again this year.
What began as a brilliant idea over a decade ago has grown into Taranaki’s largest sustainable clothing event, thanks to the incredible contributions from our community. Together, we have not only made an impact in the sustainable fashion realm but have also raised significant funds to benefit our local community.
In 2024 alone, with your support, the Taranaki Women’s Refuge Pop-Up Event raised over $86,000 in net profit, directly aiding the vital work of Taranaki Women’s Refuge. Thanks to the generosity of our community, many women have been empowered to take courageous steps to escape abusive situations, while men have received assistance in cultivating healthy relationships.
We are thrilled to announce that the fantastic Pop-Up Shop Committee—Gemma, Sue, Ellen, Anna, and Justine—will lead this year’s event. They are enthusiastic and bring valuable experience from previous years, ready to make our 11th year the biggest yet.
Will you join us again in our mission to combat family violence through our second-hand fashion movement? Simply drop your quality pre-loved men’s and women’s fashion at Centre City or any of the other locations around Taranaki.
Together, we can provide essential services to women and children facing violence in their homes right here in Taranaki. Thank you for being a crucial part of our journey. Together, we are making a real difference.
