For the month of February, Davidson & Associates is excited to partner with Boomerang, which is a non-profit, “generosity shop” with a special mission. Located in Downtown Vancouver, this multi-purpose space is used as a coffee shop, event center, art gallery and upscale retail shop. They even have an indoor play area, complete with a life-size tree house. What sets Boomerang apart, is its commitment to partnering with the community to give back! Through selling quality donated items at an affordable price, Boomerang is able to give all of that profit to local causes. Since 2015, Boomerang has been able to distribute more than $70,000 to many causes thanks to donations from community members like you!

How does it work?

When you donate an item of quality value to Boomerang, you have the opportunity to give back to the

cause of your choosing! This way, when you give your used dresser to the generosity shop, you know that all of the profit will be making an impact with an organization you care about. If you are unable to give volunteer time or money to the causes that are close to your heart, this is the perfect way to be involved and spread the spirit of generosity.

In addition to the generosity shop, Boomerang also brews high-quality coffee. Boomerang is committed to not only giving back monetarily, but also to fostering relationships within our community. They feel the coffee shop is the perfect way to build a social business that runs on connecting with causes and people alike. In this relational environment, they hope to inspire others to partner in giving with Boomerang.

We are so excited to be partnering with an organization with a reach that spans multiple causes and touches the lives of many. Boomerang is a hub for conversation, meetings and events, and most importantly generosity. We are inspired by their commitment to engaging the community and promoting charitable giving here in Vancouver, WA!
