A Fun Preview to Goodwill’s Runway Show

Interesting in attending the Runway Show but first want to see what it’s all about? Goodwill is offering a sneak peak on Monday, August 29 from 6pm to 8pm. Join us at Bell Tower Salon and Spa at 18 State Hill Rd, Wyomissing, for a Runway Show Launch Party. For a $5 donation, stop by for food, drinks, and preview some of the runway looks. Goodwill will even offer a mini boutique for some early shopping opportunities.

An awesome perk in attending the Runway Show Preview Party is that you can purchase discounted tickets for $30 instead of the $40 price. To RSVP for this fantastic event contact samara@belltowersalonspa.com or call 610.372.6379.

Back to School- clean out before buying

School is fast approaching. Get everything your child needs at your local Goodwill Store and Donation Center. Now is the perfect time to go through your child’s wardrobe from last year and donate what doesn’t fit to make room for those new outfits. It’s the perfect one stop shop. Clean out your closets to make room for the new at Goodwill.

Back to School

It’s back to school time. And while, for kids, it’s the end of summer and the beginning of another school year, for parents it is time to open their wallets to pay for all the binders, paper, pens, and stylish back to school clothes. Wouldn’t it be nice if you could find a nice back to school outfit for under $10? At Goodwill you can. Stop by your local Goodwill Store and Donation Center to get all the clothes your child needs to head back to school!

Environmentally Friendly Electronics

Dell has recently partnered with the EPA to promote responsible recycling. They are joining with the national strategy for electronic stewardship to encourage designing electronics that are easily recyclable and environmentally friendly. Check out their blog below, and remember Goodwill Stores and Donation Centers accept old computers through the Dell Reconnect program.
