maurices hosts second annual
Rescues & Runways in partnership with the ASPCA
New Castle. Indiana (9/2/2010) –
Local models will be hitting the catwalk to help four-legged felines,
canines and other homeless pets.
maurices will host a fashion
show on Sat., Sept. 18th at Maurices Parking lot. The show starts at
2:00pm-4:00pm, featuring models wearing maurices' fall fashions. The
goal is to raise support for animal shelters and help increase pet
adoptions.
"This campaign is called Rescues
& Runways and maurices stores across the country are involved, in
partnership with the ASPCA® (The American Society for the Prevention of
Cruelty to Animals®)," explained maurices Store Manager Misty Edwards.
"It's a great way to create awareness of the need for pet adoptions and
to raise supplies and financial support for our local shelter."
The campaign continues
throughout the month of September. People are invited to stop by
maurices to donate pet supplies or monetary gifts, with all support
going directly to Henry Co. Animal Shelter. As a thank you, maurices
will give supporters a coupon for 20 percent off one regular-priced
item.
maurices will also offer its
exclusive
Friends for Life charm in stores and online at
www.maurices.com from now through October 31, or while supplies
last. Half of the charm can be worn by the pet and the other half can be
worn by the pet's owner or a furry friend. The Friends for Life charm is
$5, with $2.50 from every sale going to the ASPCA to support its
national programs.
