A Message from Jennifer Gordon, Founder, Sojourn Handbags

My mom, Ruth, died of complications of heart disease in 1994. Years later, her spirit, generosity and unselfish love serve as my guide.

Sojourn presents a special collection of accessories dedicated to a remarkable woman. Ten percent of all proceeds from the Red for Ruth collection benefit the American Heart Association.

A fashionista at heart and a woman who gave freely of herself, my mom embodied a rare sense of self and style that inspired those around her to do better.

Born in Braddock, PA and raised in Chicago before moving to Southern California, her generous spirit lives on in the people she touched. A pioneering energy led her to start her own personalized hat company at the young age of 53. Her life cut short at just 56 she is remembered for her grace, charmand extraordinary character.
