SSB Bank Holds First Annual Shop for a Cause Event Benefiting HEARTH

PITTSBURGH, PA (PittsburghNewsWire.com) — It’s almost that time of year again. The holidays are upon us and once the dinner tables are cleared on Thanksgiving, priorities will go straight from filling stomachs to filling carts with holiday gifts for friends and family. With the holiday shopping frenzy kicking off as early as Thanksgiving Day with crazy Black Friday deals, we are conditioned to “hurry up and go” without taking the time to truly relax and enjoy this magical time of year. More so, with the hustle and bustle of worrying about your own family and friends, so many of us struggle to find the time and means to give back to our community like we wish we could. With all those things in mind, SSB Bank pulled together a unique event that will satisfy all those things in one night; fun, shopping, and giving back to the community in more ways than one.

On Wednesday December 19th, SSB Bank will hold their first annual Shop for a Cause: Ladies Night Out Benefiting HEARTH at The Foundry Table & Tap from 6:30-9:00pm. The $15 admission covers a drink ticket, light fare, two raffle tickets for door prizes, and access to one-time-only deals from local small businesses and vendors including: Urban Fit Co., Premier Jewelry, Sengence, Thirty One Gifts, Rodan + Fields, LuLaroe, and My Sweet “O”. By attending this event, not only are you supporting the #golocal movement by shopping from local community vendors, but a portion* of the proceeds from the event will go directly to HEARTH, a local organization supporting women and their families to prevent homelessness and encourage safe and affordable housing.

So, instead of falling into the same pattern this year, start a new tradition that will check more than one thing off your hefty to-do list and leave you (and many others) feeling satisfied this holiday season. Stop down, grab a glass of wine, peruse the vendor tables and enjoy a fun night out on the North Shore. Experience the holiday magic that comes from giving back to your community.
