Unice Harris founded Purses With Power in 2018. Unice, who has a master’s degree in business administration, recognized that women who have hospitalized children would appreciate gifts that included self-care and inspirational items. The organization provides gift baskets and gift boxes, in addition to purses. The contents may feature such smile-generators as bubble bath, candles, books, and crossword puzzles. “We will support, uplift, and inspire women one power-purse filled gift basket at a time,” said Unice, who also serves as the president. The organization recently gave away its 1,000th purse. Volunteers are needed to help with stuffing, labeling, and inventory, among other projects.
