Tilly’s Life Center (TLC) is proud to be partnering with lifestyle apparel brand Brixton for the new academic year. Brixton kindly donated hundreds of beanies, hats, scarves and other miscellaneous items to TLC to support programming, auctions and more. TLC continues to touch the lives of more teens each year and is grateful to get their spirits up with these products for the new school session.
“Brixton prides itself on bringing people together, uniting individuals from diverse lifestyles, and drawing inspiration from the world around us. Likewise, TLC equips youth with essential life skills—resilience, emotional intelligence, relationship building, and a positive mindset—helping them navigate life with confidence,” said Colleen Versteeg, CEO of TLC. “We are extremely proud to be supported by a brand that shares our vision of connection, originality, and authenticity.”
“Our team is inspired by the world and works to inspire those around us,” said David Stoddard, Brixton Co-Founder. “It’s an honor to make an impact on our youth with this donation and encourage discovery and inner strength. We appreciate TLC and what they do for teens, so we’re happy to help in any way we can. “
TLC and Brixton partnered previously this year at Tillys 17th Annual Charity Golf Tournament, “Around the World in 18 Holes,” which benefitted TLC. Brixton is an on-going supporter that has sponsored this event many times in the past. Brixton and TLC look forward to enriching this relationship with future initiatives.
About TLC
The lack of resources and support for youth mental health services is alarming, especially considering the numerous and complex challenges our young people are facing today. TLC’s emotional wellness program is helping to fill this gap by equipping teens with essential life skills and coping techniques that combat issues like suicide, anxiety, depression, bullying, school violence, substance abuse, and addiction. Through its “I Am Me” curriculum, TLC empowers youth to overcome adversity and crises by developing critical life skills through a series of lessons that include effective communication, stress management, responsible decision-making, goal setting, and more. By providing youth with ongoing opportunities to apply different wellness techniques, including guided discussions, journaling, mindfulness moments, art, and role-playing, teens adopt a positive mindset, enabling them to move past trauma, navigate challenges, and thrive.

About Brixton
The story of Brixton began with a hat. Started out of a garage in Oceanside, CA by a group of friends that drew inspiration from the music and culture that surrounded them, Brixton became a way to bring people together through music, culture, and the spirit of adventure. The brand’s approach centers around classic silhouettes reinterpreted to meet the needs of modern living. Their products derive inspiration from workwear through several generations – from mariners and aviators, to cowboys and laborers, and beyond. Simply put, Brixton’s apparel and headwear is inspired by the past, built to live in the present.
