Operation: Spring Cleaning

Spring cleaning is a satisfying tradition that can help you get a jump start on the new season. This year when you clean house, we would like you to consider donating your "clutter" to a local, non-profit organization - Operation Breakthrough. OB is dedicated to helping over 600 children who live in poverty right here in Kansas City by providing them a safe, loving, and educational environment

All your gently used old clothes, shoes, books, and toys are items that children and adults at Operation Breakthrough can use. And your generosity will be rewarded by local retailers.

HOW YOU CAN HELP

Step #1: Clean and organize!

Start by cleaning and organizing your house to get things back in order for Spring. Need help? Martha Stewart has 10 clever cleaning tricks you might want to write down.

Step #2: Set aside items you want to donate.

The children and families at Operation Breakthrough are in need of clothes and toys (all ages and clothing sizes). While you're organizing, set aside extra clothes and toys in a box or sack. The OB families can also use NEW household items such as bath soap, laundry soap, sponges, cleansers, and dishwashing soap.

Step #3: Drop-off, donate, get a discount!

If you donate more than 4 items you'll get a discount! Drop-off your donation at Standard Style Boutique and you'll receive a 20% discount off any denim purchase*. Or you can drop-off your donation at Tower Tavern and you'll receive 20% off any purchase over $20*. We will be accepting donations at all three locations until April 30. No purchase is required to make a donation.

*Not valid with other discounts or sale items. Discounts must be redeemed during the same visit as donation drop-off. The Standard Style Boutique discount runs between April 6 and April 11, 2010 only.

It's that simple, and your support will help hundreds of local families. There's no better time to roll up your sleeves and start donating your unwanted things!
