Boutique now open to raise money for domestic violence shelter in Phoenix

PHOENIX (3TV/CBS 5) — A nonprofit has opened a boutique shop in Ahwatukee to help raise money to help women in need of housing.

Janice’s Women’s Center opened the Janice Vaincre Boutique at the corner of Ranch Circle Drive and Ray Road in June. The upscale women’s used clothing store is open to help raise about $7.5 million to get a women’s center built to help women suffering from domestic violence.

Arizona’s Family first introduced you to this project in April. The founder, Shante Saulsberry saw a woman who appeared to be homeless sitting at a bus stop last year near the corner of Ray Road and 50th Street in Ahwatukee.

“And I decided, ‘Well, I’m going to get that lady breakfast,'” Saulsberry said. That began a routine where Saulsberry would pick up a meal for the woman named Janice at a nearby Chick-Fil-A.
