Oh, Shop It: Support the Judson Center at Shop for a Cause



This Wednesday is a perfect day to pick up that sundress or fun skirt you have been eyeing since the spring/summer collections have hit the stores. Saks Fifth Avenue has partnered with the Judson Center for a day full of shopping for a wonderful cause, and an evening of cocktails.

From 10 a.m. to 9 p.m., stop into Saks Fifth Avenue and 10% of your purchases will go to support the Judson Center’s Lahser Children’s Respite Home, Oakland County’s only respite home for children with disabilities. Once you’ve shopped until you (almost) drop, join Judson Center representatives from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. for complimentary light bites and refreshments.

Here’s a little background about the Judson Center, if you don’t already know. Lahser is part of the Judson Center, and it’s the only respite home in Oakland County that provides relief for families who struggle to take care of children with disabilities. Due to cuts in state aid for mental health, this home is in danger of closing in September. Many families who rely on this help have either received a reduced number of days or are no longer able to utilize their services.


If you cannot attend the event, but wish to make a donation, please send to the Development Judson Center at 4410 W. 13 Mile Rd., Royal Oak, MI 48073, or make a payment online. Saks Fifth Avenue is located at 2901 W Big Beaver Rd., in Troy.

See you there!
