Bridging the gap of clothing insecurity by providing to those in need and those that wish to receive. Simultaneously doing our part to restore faith in humanity by reminding you that when you Give, you always Receive [and vice-versa ].
Established in 2024 by Marisa Ikpoh, The Give-n-Receive was a mission originally put on her heart in 2018. However, lacking in confidence and connections, Marisa decided the notion would remain in her heart. Then in late 2023, the notion resurfaced again with even MORE direction and inspiration. Yet again, she allowed her fear to override her faith. She told herself all of the reasons she could never bring such a project to fruition and once again did nothing.
In January of 2024, Marisa heard a clear directive from GOD telling her it was time to move forward with the mission. In strict obedience, she began pulling things together and booked FIVE events within 2 weeks! She was excited but terrified, as she had NO CLOTHES to offer and her first pop-up was scheduled for 2 weeks!
She followed the additional directive to, "tell everyone", and began speaking life into the mission with people in her dance classes [Zumba and belly dance]. Within a week she found herself surrounded by clothing donations for all sizes, ages and genders! Her faith was overriding her fear for the first time!
Marisa now finds herself entering worlds she never imagined with confidence and cheer. The Give-n-Receive books out for an entire year within 2 months, with Networking and growth opportunities being limitless. She carries the flag of The Give-n-Receive in her heart and is determined to continue forward to reach as many people as possible. When it comes to limits, the sky is just the beginning.
