Elder-Beerman Stores Partner with Goodwill, Offers Deal

Elder-Beerman stores are holding their semi-annual Goodwill Sale through September 29. When you donate your gently-used clothing at any Elder-Beerman location, you’ll receive a coupon to purchase new clothing from Elder-Beerman. Your donated items will be sold at Marion Goodwill stores, where the revenues fund job training and placement services to help people in Marion find and keep jobs.

Customers will receive a discount coupon for each item of clothing or textile they donate. The coupon can be used at the Marion Elder-Beerman store to purchase women’s, men’s and children’s apparel, shoes, handbags, luggage, fragrances and more at a discount ranging from 15-20 percent.

Elder-Beerman says those who donate during the Goodwill Sale can take pride in knowing their Goodwill donations provide numerous job opportunities for people with disabilities and disadvantages

Customers who donate at any of the Elder-Beerman or Bon-Ton stores during the Goodwill Sale can also pledge their support for Goodwill’s mission of employment and training by registering their donation on www.millionactsofgoodwill.com and receive a coupon for a 25 percent discount to use at any Elder-Beerman or Bon-Ton store. Web visitors will also be able to play the “Closet Clean Out Giveaway Instant Win Game,” for a chance to win a Bon-Ton gift card instantly and be entered into a sweepstakes for a chance to win a $1,000 shopping spree.

“Through the semi-annual Goodwill sale, our goal is to collect more than 6.5 million pounds of gently used clothing and textiles to donate to Goodwill to assist people who face challenges to finding employment in neighboring communities where Elder-Beerman or Bon-Ton stores are present,” said Brendan L. Hoffman, president and chief executive officer of The Bon-Ton Stores, Inc. “This is our customers’ favorite sale because it gives them an opportunity to donate to help a great organization and get special deals on new fall merchandise.”
