The 90s Summer Social
Our first gathering: two dozen women, childhood photos, heartfelt reflections, hibachi, a movie night, and a clothing swap that collected more than sixty pieces.
The Morning After
Donated with love
Every piece left from the swap was donated onward to women in our local community — generosity that kept going after the party ended.

Christmas 2026
For the youth of Casa Pacifica
Gifts delivered to the Camarillo campus
Dove pickup and delivery dates to be announced
Each red dove ornament carries one young person’s wishes: three wants and two needs, with a first name and an age. Sons & Daughters Foundation has pledged to fulfill 100 of them, and the volunteers of She Rises Collective will shop, sort, and deliver every gift, unwrapped, to Casa Pacifica.
Note Dove in your Zelle or PayPal memo and your gift goes to this campaign. Ways to give →
What’s decided, and what isn’t
- DecidedThe partner is Casa Pacifica, the same organization that received supplies for 70 children after our August giveback, and the pledge is 100 doves.
- DecidedGifts stay unwrapped and travel with their dove, so each one reaches the young person who asked for it. Gift cards go in a separate envelope.
- Still openDove pickup dates, the shopping and sorting day, and the delivery deadline, all of which follow Casa Pacifica’s 2026 holiday schedule.

Businesses: sponsor a set of doves
Ten doves, twenty-five, fifty: a business can put its name behind a whole set of wishes, by giving toward them or by shopping them as a team. With your permission, we thank sponsors by name on this page and on Instagram.
