SPOKANE, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Project Beauty Share®, a Spokane, Washington-based non-profit that provides beauty and personal care products to women’s agencies, today announces #BeautyWishes2019, its second annual, 15-day nationwide fund raising campaign benefiting women who are overcoming homelessness, addiction, poverty and abuse, and the organizations who serve them.
Beauty Wishes™ is a co-creation of Project Beauty Share and YouTube beauty influencer ThaTaylaa (Taylor), an active donor and the creator of the #15DaysofFoundation YouTube series with a social following of more than 850,000 fans across YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, and Snapchat.
“I’m super excited to team up again this year with Project Beauty Share to launch #BeautyWishes2019 during Season 6 of my #15DaysofFoundation YouTube series. We’re so thankful for the support of top beauty brands and my global audience who actively and enthusiastically support the Beauty Wishes mission each season,” said Taylor. “When you’re given a platform, I believe it should be used for positivity and change. I hope that Beauty Wishes inspires more people to get involved in their communities.”
The Beauty is in the Giving – Our Fabulous Beauty Brand Partners
ColourPop, CYO, L’Oreal Paris, Maybelline, Morphe, Native, Sigma Beauty and Wet n Wild are providing much needed beauty and personal care products to each of the participating agencies, empowering women to regain their dignity and re-build their lives.
“We at Sigma Beauty are thrilled to have been invited by ThaTaylaa to participate in #BeautyWishes2019. Through our collaborative partnership with ThaTaylaa, we learned about Beauty Wishes and how it supports the mission of Project Beauty Share, a program that gives back to women and families overcoming abuse, addiction, homelessness and poverty. We knew immediately that we wanted to do what we could to be a part of this incredible effort,” said Simone Xavier, Founder and CCO, Sigma Beauty.
“We know that physical appearance can play an enormous role in how a woman feels and even views herself. For the women that Project Beauty Share and #BeautyWishes2019 support, beauty isn’t frivolous or superficial—it’s a way to make a woman feel special and more confident when they’re at their most vulnerable. Sigma Beauty is honored to have the opportunity to give back, and excited to partner with Project Beauty Share and ThaTaylaa to positively impact the lives of these women on their path to recovery,” added Xavier.
The #BeautyWishes2019 fund-raising campaign kicks off February 1 with Season 6 of ThaTaylaa’s #15DaysofFoundation YouTube series, during which she will announce the five new agencies selected to participate in the campaign.

“Everyone deserves to feel valued. Yet, women struggling to overcome abuse and poverty lack the basic essentials to care for themselves. To these women, beauty and personal care items aren’t about vanity—they give them back their dignity as they work to rebuild their lives—and fill them with hope for a better future,” said Julie Farley, founder of Project Beauty Share. “We are immensely grateful to ThaTaylaa, our beauty co-sponsors, and folks from around the U.S. and the world for their generous donations and for embracing the mission of Project Beauty Share.”
