How the Store works

If you are interested in setting up a Gift of Giving Store at a Women's shelter or a Domestic Violence Center near you, I want this website to make it very easy for you to do. You can purchase everything you would need to buy at Amazon.com. I am including all of the items you would buy (including the links and pricing), which are only suggestions and you can do more or less. The total cost of the store should be less than $2,000.
