Support Bklyn's Young Adults via On The Verj & #ThePolishProject

On the Verj, a women's empowerment brand created to identify, highlight and encourage women on the verge ("verj") of becoming their optimum selves; both personally and professionally, presents....

the Polish Project!

Our first project for young adults! On the Verj is creating a nail polish line for Brooklynite's.

This isn't just any old nail polish line; this is The Polish Project, nail polish with a purpose! Our purpose is to help support the local/national nonprofit organizations that serve and assist our girls, teens, young adults and women. 

To date, we have secured a partnership with Operation PROM's Brooklyn Chapter to:

  • Provide mani/pedi's for over 10 deserving high school seniors off to prom
  • Offer the Operation Prom Brooklyn Chapter their first official nail polish color!
On The Verj founder and native Clinton Hill resident, Kristen Kenner, says “We're using a simple beauty product to make a difference” [...] “nail polish is the one product that doesn't change or alter the natural beauty of the wearer. It’s a fun way to change your look, without changing who you are.”

With your help, we can expand our efforts and give back to multiple organizations! 

Please visit our Indiegogo site to learn more about our project, find out how you and/or your organization can get involved, and support our efforts!
