Soma Intimates in Water Tower Place has announced its next “Giving Is Beautiful” Bra Donation drive, collecting new and gently used bras now through August 12 to benefit the National Network to End Domestic Violence.

This charitable donation began in 2010 at Chicago’s Water Tower Place store and has grown to become a nationwide initiative that is the largest of its kind, collecting more than 265,000 bras to-date. Bras are one of the least donated but most in-demand items for women in need, and all bras collected at Chicago-area Soma Intimates stores – including Water Tower Place, Oakbrook Center and Northbrook Court – will be donated to local domestic violence-preventative programs.
