Donate a duffel bag to a child in foster care: bit.ly/484DGeP $30 buys one bag with supplies. As I write this, we have raised enough (over two fundraisers) to give bags to 74 foster children! That's incredible and we'd love to keep going and be able to provide bags for 100 kids. Thank you all soooo much for your generous support!
Thank you!!!! Autumn sharing this on her platform was unexpected. Our little family is just beyond thrilled to have raised as much as we have. The link will stay active through Valentine’s Day for those who still would like to contribute. Words cannot express how much gratitude and love we feel from all the donations that have poured in, and continue to come in. Thank you all for helping children in need.
Thank you sis so much for sharing this. We have raised way more than I ever expected. Thank you to all who have contributed to this campaign, and who will contribute. What my family plans on doing, is at our adoption party we will have our guests help decorate the duffle bags, then we will donate the bags to our local foster closet who will distribute to children within our region.
I have also seen those videos where people have said that. I saw Connors video. I wish people would stop telling people that unless their bags are Chanel, Hermes, LV, etc. they are not luxury. Luxury defined by people with more assets are different from people who spend extra money to buy bags like Coach. I feel luxury is in the eye and experience of the individual. I commented my feelings to Connor.
I believe coach is a luxury brand in my opinion. Coach outlet I feel is contemporary. When bags are priced over $300-$800 that’s luxury to me 🤷🏾♀️ The name what most people pay for
Thanks for posting this "Exciting News". Being the long awaited "GranMary", I can't wait for the judge to use his gavel and declare "Finally Legal". We have loved him since Day 1.
The PLG bag is adorable. I will say however that they have been hit and miss for me. Some things have been fabulous and others were of terrible quality. I think they are still having growing pains. The Coach bag is to die for. I love Coach. I started buying them in the 80’s and then their quality tanked and I stopped for years. I recently started buying from them again. Still there is nothing like the vintage I still have. Happy Sunday.🖤
Congratulations to your sister and husband, that is so amazing of them. To be a foster parent is so tough and takes people with a special heart. To then adopt those kids takes an even bigger heart ❤❤. I love this.
All love & congratulations to your sister & family. LOVE the donation party. It's a brilliant idea to help even more children in such an important way. I love seeing you have fun with frivolous bags! 🦖💖
Congratulations to your sister! Love the idea of the charity. I've heard of them before. Agreed that the first bag needs to go back. The Coach bag is adorable. You tell Connor girl! What was he talking about anyway!! 😉😆
Agree with leather heart to be returned. Quite frankly, I’m not a heart shaped back person or an animal shaped bag person. Thank you for your insights! Sent you a thank you $!
Congratulations on the formal adoption of your nephew Auntie Autumn! It's a wonderful event. I love my quilted Coach heart bag. I also hesitated buying it because I was afraid I was too old for it. (I'm telling myself because it's black, it's more mature) I'm on the hunt for a preloved Rexy.
That’s awesome news! And what a wonderful idea to donate for this cause. As a former adoption worker, I am so happy that this child is getting a permanent home! That’s a shame that your bag was a mess. It’s adorable if you get a good one! The Coach uses beautiful leather. Coach quilted leathers tend to be soft and supple.
Oh what wonderful news :) I dream of being able to adopt one day what a wonderful gift to be able to give a home to more people and specially children.
Congrats to your family and I LOVE the duffel bag donation idea; I work with children and this is extra close to my heart. Coach is awesome; I would like to have the new quilted tabby 33 if it goes on sale!
Huge congratulations to your sister and brother in law and most of all to your nephew❤️ Love your heart bags🖤🖤 even the dented one😊. I saw Connor’s video a little earlier and enjoyed hearing his thoughts too.
Congrats to your sister and your nephew! What exciting news! We're also an adoptive family and our oldest two kiddos came to us with just a cardboard box between them for all their possessions. I'm waiting on a PLG order currently and didn't even know about the bag you reviewed!
Congratulations, Autumn! This is indeed wonderful news! Your nephew is so lucky to have your sister and brother-in law as his parents.🤗 I have this Coach heart bag for almost a year and I love it! It’s my go to bag and use it every day. It’s such a beautiful bag and the quality is top notch!😍
So happy for your sister❤️ A friend was a foster parent years ago and ended up adopting the baby she was fostering. She already had 2 daughters and this precious baby made her family perfect! My daughter's fiance was in a foster home and aged out, he was just her bf then but his choices of where to go were bleak so he came to live with us. It wasn't always easy but he was safe and well taken care of and now they are on their own with 2 young children and I'm a happy grandma! I think the bags for the foster children is a great idea❤️ I love how that heart bag looks on you🖤
Autumn, congrats to your entire family on the new addition. In my area, the local foster agency collects backpacks, duffels, suitcases, etc. for this exact purpose. I watch for great sales and also haunt thrift stores. It’s always a thrill to find good quality bags (our agency especially likes backpacks) in new or excellent condition. Older kids, even those in bad circumstances, love their name brands. I’d highly recommend that folks check with local agencies and purge extras to help a kid in need. It’s a great cause.
Congratulations to your sister and her husband! ❤❤ fostering is so hard, and I’m thankful that families like theirs do take these kids in and give them what they need. Such a great donation idea! Wonderful! My friend used to foster for about 15 years and I was always so saddened by the stories and knowing these kids sometimes don’t have anything to take with them. It’s so very sad, I love this idea! ❤
Congratulations to your sister and the rest of the family. What a blessing to foster a child then even adopt them icing on the cake. My 2 teenage sons and myself are donating. Thank you for using your platform for such a good cause
Congratulations to your family! Adoption is such a wonderful gift. As an adoptee over 40 years ago I still remember the black garbage bags like it was yesterday. Thank you for the opportunity to give back! I definitely will check out the organization. The PLG bag is very disappointing, the design is off. The Coach bag is stunning! I'm so glad you are keeping it. Happy Valentines Day! -Sonia
Congratulations to your sister's family, wonderful news!! I love that you are using your Rexy bag. It really is fun and playful ❤😄 last year was the year you wanted to add more color and texture to your bag collection so maybe this is the year of adding more playful bags 😜
This is soooo amazing, my brother just adopted a 14 yr old foster girl, a half sister to one of there 3 other adopted children. It’s wonderful to hear other happy new beginnings for these amazing children. So happy for your family. Congratulations. ❤❤😊😊🎉🎉
Also, the PLG bag is what happens when trying to be unique goes wrong. They could have done a heart like all the other brands but with a scalloped pocket or something
The Coach heart bag is gorgeous!! The Portland Leather bag not at all. Very surprised at all the indentations. Congratulations to your sister and brother in law.❤
I think that's a perfect evening bag for the symphony, ballet, or fine dining. It would work well with a smaller special occasion wallet or card holder, something you don't carry every day.
Hi 👋 Autumn congratulations to your sister and husband and their child. Gosh I loved 🥰 the plg heart bag on the onset. So disappointing 😔 enjoy the Coach heart ❤️ bag. Now this one I have a hard time pulling the trigger on. But it’s gorgeous TFS 👛🛍️🚢🙏🦆
Congratulations to your sister & husband 💕and the new small family ! I just ordered a luxury heart bag aswell, curious to see, if it will work for me and I can justify to pay LV money for it 😅🙈
I was not impressed with the first heart. I was thinking, no!! Send that one back! Get a Coach heart!!❤ Then you pulled out the Coach heart!! 😂 You were way ahead of me!!
Congratulations to the whole family! The fundraising goal is already over 50% 15mins after you loading your vid so I hope you can keep fundraising and your sister seems to have set her sights a little low 🥰
It never dawned on me that Autumn would use her platform to share the fundraiser. Had I known that, I would have set my goal much higher! Right now we’ve raised over $2000 and donations are still coming in. Our little man is so excited to see all the love from everyone.
It’s shocking that Portland Leather would ship a bag in that condition- customer service is certainly lacking!! I love Coach -I just bought the Teri Hobo bag 💼 n black!!
Congratulations to your family on the new addition! I have the quilted heart bag from Coach and its one of my favorite in my collection. Great purchase.
Autumn I feel some people missed the point on the Luxury comment. You talked about the quality of the bags, honestly LV and Channel have lost what made them so special. The quality on both has declined. I watched Connor's video and respectfully will not comment on it. I buy a handbag for quality, especially if I'm spending my hard earned money on it. It was a great video! Congratulations to your sister& family on the adoption ❤
Coach is way better quality than a lot of the “luxury “ brands! I am so over LV! I’ve spent 1,000s of dollars for popped stitching and crooked emblems…. I am done! You are a fool to pay such high prices simply for a name…. 🙄
