Belk Charity Sale benefits non-profits
Belk's Fall Charity Sale at all locations is Saturday from 6 - 10 a.m.
The event benefits local charities, schools and nonprofit organizations throughout the company's 16-state market area, including Newnan and Coweta County. Belk's Spring Charity Sale, held earlier this year, raised more than $5 million for hundreds of participating nonprofit organizations.
In exchange for a $5 donation, customers receive a ticket admitting them to the Charity Sale on Nov. 7 from 6 to 10 a.m. and entitling them to merchandise discounts ranging from an extra 15 to 50 percent on purchases throughout the store, including special savings on rarely discounted brands. Customers also receive $5 off their first purchase of $5 or more at the event, and Belk cardholders receive double Rewards points for card purchases.
Participating local charities sell the Charity Sale tickets prior to the event and all proceeds from each $5 ticket sold will be retained by the charity. As of Oct. 30, tickets are also at Belk stores with all donations equally divided among the participating charities and schools.
