The charity is in line with the retailer’s mission of supporting women and girls and helping them build inner strength and develop confidence. 

"On a bi-yearly basis, each one of her 50 stores picks a charity partner that speaks specifically to them," Feeney explained. "They are all great causes."

If clients shop online they are able to pick from the full range of the charities Eileen Fisher will be supporting as a company and have the 10 percent donation go toward the charity of their choice.

"We are also offering $25 coupon off a $50 or more purchase for Saturday only," Feeney said. "We have a lot of fun and make a lot of meaningful connections."
