SHOP AT THERAPY: The Giving of Warmth.

The Giving of Warmth.

Clothing as always been one of the most honest ways to express yourself, so of course the one item that covers all of that up can be considered the most revealing of them all. From fancy to everyday, heavy to light, we have coats galore for every type of person and weather forecast. Not only do they serve a very necessary function, they can also tell a story. We carry jackets from family-owned companies that were started at the turn of the century; some of our coats are produced by the same company who clothe the men and women who serve to protect our nation in the fire and police departments; some are inspired by cultures across the Atlantic. So stop into Therapy to discover that covering up can be the most fun.

With that said, we can't forget about our neighbors, no matter where they happen to be. Being a community and family-centered company, we do what we can to help those in need and recently the small rural town of Gilboa, New York (a place very dear to our hearts) was completely demolished by floods caused by Hurricane Irene only to leave many families homeless and in need of the basics of life. The surrounding towns of Bleiham, Middleburgh and Schoharie were devastated by this flood as well and there is only one school that serves this entire rural area, Gilboa-Conesville School, leaving it in desperate need of funding and clothing for the children affected by this natural disaster.

There really is no other answer than 'yes' when asked to help a child and we here at Therapy are in a very fortunate position to help the families of Gilboa by donating $10,000 to the Rebuild Gilboa Fund. That money will be going to the children of that area, grades K-12, most of whom survived with just the clothes on their back and now with the colder months arriving, they are in desperate need of warmer clothing.
