Intersecting Retail & Philanthropy

Who doesn't love design, fashion, and charitable causes? Treasure & Bond wants to generate change for its surrounding community. With every purchase made, 100% of all of their after-cost profits goes directly to those who are in need.



What may surprise you is Nordstrom is the name behind Treasure & Bond. Treasure & Bond opened it's doors in August 2011. Part gift boutique, part art gallery and part neighborhood gathering place, it’s an exciting new experiment in giving that has, at its core, one simple goal: To help people help people—and to do so with wit, imagination and style.



Treasure & Bond has an unique feel. The merchandise itself is used to display goods. The space has a funky, trendy feel that is exhibited in the SoHo neighborhood. The design of the store is flexible with the varying merchandise that comes in.
