HERBERGER’S TO GIVE JOY AND GIVE BACK TO LOCAL BOYS & GIRLS CLUBS WITH HOLIDAY PROGRAMS

Herberger’s is supporting local Boys & Girls Clubs to raise funds for a worthy cause: giving children a safe place to learn and grow. As a new initiative this year, The Herberger’s will host “Give Joy” trees in each of its locations beginning on Monday, Nov. 3.

Each “Give Joy” tree will be adorned with tags suggesting gift ideas for local Boys & Girls Clubs members. Customers may select a tag from the tree and fulfill a gift request for a child in their community. Customers will then return the unwrapped gifts to the Children’s Department at their Herberger’s store by early December. The donated gifts will be presented to Boys & Girls Club children in their community.

In addition, Herberger’s celebrates the holiday season with the return of Sammy, a decorative, plush snowman. New this year is an additional plush item, Rusty the Reindeer. Both Sammy and Rusty are holiday promotional items available for sale now. A portion of the sales from both items will directly benefit local Boys & Girls Clubs.

Sammy and Rusty sell for $4.99 each and will be sold throughout the holiday season in 281 stores, in 23 states, supporting nearly 150 Clubs. Each plush item is 15” tall and dressed in a festive sweater and scarf.

"We believe in being positive participants in the markets in which we operate,” said Bud Bergren, President and CEO, The Bon-Ton Stores, Inc. “We would like to thank our customers who contribute to these two special promotions, which will help give joy during this holiday season and make a difference for the children in our communities throughout the year.”
