Local Non-Profit Hoping to Make a Difference During the Holiday Season
Kidsy Expands Its Online Marketplace of Secondhand Baby and Kids Products Ahead of Holiday...
Kidsy, an online marketplace for parents to buy and sell gently used kids' items across all categories in the U.S., announces a major growth milestone, with over 7,000 products now for sale since its April 2022 launch. This milestone makes Kidsy one of the fastest-growing resellers for products in its category, indicative of a rapidly growing secondhand shopping market as parents seek out cost-effective options as inflation hits a 40-year high.
The U.S. secondhand baby and kids products market is expected to reach $12.8 billion by 2030, driven by advancements in technology and a surge in popularity of secondhand marketplaces.
"Over the past few years, I've witnessed a seismic shift among my peers in the way they shop," said Shraysi Tandon, CEO and co-founder of Kidsy. "Gone are the days of clamoring for every item from the hottest new designer collection; that seems so passé today. Parents are now showing off their secondhand purchases and building closets and nurseries out of their lucky finds. There's an appreciation for the nostalgia and history attached to secondhand goods. It's so much more enchanting."
Kidsy offers a wide selection of products by eliminating the geographic limitations of a social media marketplace or a local secondhand store. Users can browse through items, including clothes, toys, books, bath items, diapering, travel gear and nursery essentials, and filter their search to find what they are looking for from sellers across the U.S. They are able to message sellers directly, ask questions about an item and even make them an offer, all through the Kidsy platform.
"At Kidsy, we believe the closets and nurseries of the future are circular. The rapid growth of Kidsy is testament to the boom of secondhand shopping, and we expect this trend to continue as more people recognize resale as a powerful solution to wastefulness, not to mention a solution to high prices and inflation," said Sinan Sari, co-founder and CTO of Kidsy. "With the holiday season here, we're excited to provide a resource for parents to find affordable options during an often cash-strapped time of year, and resell some of the gently used items they no longer have a use for."
For the holiday season, Kidsy is offering all customers a $5 coupon redeemable on the Kidsy marketplace between now and Dec. 31, 2022. To take advantage of the promotion, use HOLIDAY5 at checkout.
Kidsy's parenting blog, answering Google's most frequently asked questions about kids, from feeding and sleep training to educational activities, is now live.

Black Women in Ministry to Host Gala at National Press Club for Women Faith...
WASHINGTON - November 30, 2022 - (Newswire.com)
Three hundred trailblazing Black women faith leaders from across the country will convene at the National Press Club in Washington, DC, this Friday, Dec. 2, 6-10 p.m. for a gala recognizing 20 outstanding "She-roes." The event is part of an unprecedented effort to mentor emerging Black female clergy taking the reins of an almost exclusively male-led religious sector of American life.
Hosting the ceremony will be President Obama's appointee, the Honorable (Reverend Dr.) Suzan D. Johnson Cook, the first woman and African-American to be Ambassador-at-Large for International Religious Freedom. Dr. Cook was also the first woman president of the legendary Hampton Ministers' Conference, a major association of Black clergy, denominations, and institutions. Now in her 40th year of ordained ministry, Ambassador Cook has dedicated this season of her work "not to retiring, but to inspiring."
Among the honorees will be Turner Theological Seminary of Atlanta's first African-American female president, Dr. Ammie L. Davis, the first Black woman to lead a Baptist missions agency, Dr. Gina Stewart, and the First Lady of the 1.3 million-member Full Gospel Movement, Elder Debra Morton.
Dr. Johnson Cook said, "You can't keep good women down. The strength of their character, charisma, spirit, and intellect causes them to rise to the top. These women and the generations that will follow them constitute the soul of America. They are, in fact, the keepers of our country's soul and conscience, and they inspire us all to rise to our very best, as they have done."
Proceeds from the dinner will help establish the first-ever Women in Ministry Center on an HBCU campus, reflecting the objectives of Women on the World Stage, "leadership development for enhancing, empowering, equipping, and advancing women."
The event invites reporters to attend.
