Making the world a brighter place is so important to us we recently created a position on Vera Bradley Inc.'s c-suite to lead our efforts. We are so excited to introduce you to Stephanie Scheele, our go-to source of world-brightening inspiration who was named Vera Bradley Inc.'s Chief Purpose & Communication Officer.
Finding a Cure
"Together, we're committed to finding a cure for breast cancer. In 1993, our co-founders began raising funds for breast cancer research after the loss of their dear friend and colleague. Since then, you've helped us raise more than $36 million to support life-saving research!"
"This September, we get to host one of our favorite events of the year. The 27th Annual Vera Bradley Foundation for Breast Cancer Classic will bring friends and family together to create awareness, raise donations and spread hope. I can't wait for the women's golf charity tournament — and the pickleball tournament, too!"
Brightening Futures
"Through working with Blessings in a Backpack and New Hope Girls, building a better future with Women Who Create and advocating for equality with Free Mom Hugs, there are so many ways to get involved and make a difference!"
Loving Locally
"We support more than 40 non-profit organizations in our hometown of Fort Wayne, Indiana, and dozens more nationwide. We like to lend a hand however we can — like during the start of COVID-19, when we supported healthcare workers on the frontlines with donations made to the American Nurses Foundation!""From our hometown to the areas around the world that you get call home, we're committed to giving back however we can in times of need. Caring is at our core — and a big part of our promise to you."
