For Immediate Release
The 99 Dollar Furniture Store
to host “Christmas in July”
Mesa, Ariz. (July
10, 2008) – The 99 Dollar Furniture Store is partnering with the Child Crisis
Center through the month of July to provide children with much needed items
during the holiday season. With two locations in Mesa
and Glendale,
the store will serve as a drop off location for toys, diapers and baby food. This
“Christmas in July” event will last the entire month and will assist children
exposed to abuse, neglect and/or trauma. The Child Crisis Center
is stockpiling the items early for fear that the struggling economy will effect
donations received during the holidays.
In order to
help fulfill the need for toys, diapers, food and other accessories, The 99
Dollar Furniture Store will be offering five percent off any purchase when
customers bring in any of the items listed above.
The purpose
of the Child Crisis Center is to prevent neglect and child abuse by supporting
and strengthening families through education and intervention, providing a safe
environment for children to heal and grow, raising community awareness, and
taking the lead and setting the standard for others to follow. The Child Crisis
Center’s shelter and programs have provided aid
and comfort to over 12,000 children.
“We are filled
with gratitude at this generous offering from The 99 Dollar Furniture Store.
These donations will help create a comfortable and safe home-like environment
for thousands of local children,” said Pamela Godfrey, Community Relations
Manager for the Child
Crisis Center.
The 99 Dollar Furniture Store Owner, Pam Allara is eager to team up with the
organization, “Many children at the Child
Crisis Center aren’t able
to experience a Christmas. It’s a joy to help these children in any way we can.”
