“The simple act of donating during the Bon-Ton Goodwill Sale has a positive and lasting impact on people in our communities who are looking for work,” said Jim Gibbons, president and CEO of Goodwill Industries International.

Rockville, MD (PRWEB) March 01, 2016 -- The Bon-Ton Stores, Inc. (NASDAQ: BONT), which operates Bon-Ton, Bergner’s, Boston Store, Carson’s, Elder-Beerman, Herberger’s and Younkers stores invites you to donate items to Goodwill and shop during the Bon-Ton Goodwill Sale beginning Wednesday, March 9 to Saturday, March 26. Customers are encouraged to clean out their closets and bring clothing, shoes, accessories and other household textile donations to any of the 267 Bon-Ton store locations throughout the country to be donated to your local Goodwill® organization. Goodwill will then sell those items in its stores to help fund job placement and training programs for people who face challenges in finding employment in your community.

“Our customers look forward to the Bon-Ton Goodwill Sale because it is an opportunity to receive great deals on the season’s newest trends while also helping their local communities.” said Kathryn Bufano, president and CEO of The Bon-Ton Stores. “Our longstanding collaboration of more than 20 years with Goodwill is a hallmark of Bon-Ton’s commitment to helping people in every community we serve.”

Participating in the Goodwill Sale has never been so rewarding. Here are three great reasons to donate items and shop during the Bon-Ton Goodwill Sale:

#1 You will directly impact your community by donating to Goodwill.
Donate gently used items for Goodwill at your local Bon-Ton Bergner’s, Boston Store, Carson’s Elder-Beerman, Herberger’s or Younkers department stores from Wednesday, March 9 to Saturday, March 26. In 2015, Bon-Ton customer and associate donations generated the equivalent of more than 575,000 hours of Goodwill job training services for people in our local communities.

Here are a few popular donation needs:
• Men’s and Ladies’ shirts & blouses
• Skirts
• Dresses
• Men’s and Ladies’ denim
• Men’s and Ladies’ business suits
• Men’s, Ladies’ and kids outerwear
• Shoes (athletic, dress, and casual)
• Jewelry
• Accessories, belts, scarves, hats
• Soft home goods such as blankets
• Luggage

“The simple act of donating during the Bon-Ton Goodwill Sale has a positive and lasting impact on people in our communities who are looking for work,” said Jim Gibbons, president and CEO of Goodwill Industries International. “We are thankful for the generosity of Goodwill donors and Bon-Ton shoppers for helping Goodwill provide the services people need to build their careers and care for their families.”

Goodwill services include computer classes, financial education, skills development, mentoring and many others. Last year, more than 318,000 people earned jobs as a result of Goodwill programs. In 2015, Bon-Ton and its customers contributed 4 million pounds to Goodwill locations throughout 26 states.

#2 It’s easy to donate and save on Spring fashions, beauty and home.
Donors receive coupons for up to 25 percent off for every item donated. Customers can also receive three coupons for a five dollar donation to Goodwill. Goodwill Sale coupons are valid on nearly everything in the store and can be used to purchase stylish New & Now spring merchandise, designer brands like Vince Camuto, Lauren Ralph Lauren, Calvin Klein, MICHAEL Michael Kors, Coach and many more. Shop the five new trends of the season:

• So Blue: Shades of blue from sky to navy
• Pick Flowers: Bold watercolors to subtle blooms
• Bold and Graphic: Colorful unexpected patterns and stripes
• White Hot: Crisp, cool and timeless
• 70’s Revival: Modern looks with retro flare

Another beautiful reward is receiving 15 percent off your favorite cosmetics like Estee Lauder, Clinique and Lancôme. Offers are valid at any Bon-Ton, Bergner’s, Boston Store, Carson’s, Elder-Beerman, Herberger’s or Younkers stores and online.

#3 You have a chance to win a $100 Daily Prize and a $15,000 Spring Style and Wardrobe Makeover.
