On this day, retailers will create an activity or promotion in their stores that would benefit that charity of choice.
Examples of charity day participation include children’s boutique Pink & Brown will donate profits to K.I.D.S. (Kids In Distressed Situations), Current Boutique will give customers 15 percent off their purchases if they donate gently-used suits for Suited for Change, and Red Barn Mercantile will host a variety of activities such as free design advice all day, craft for kids and 20 percent of sales from the day will go to Habitat for Humanity of Northern Virginia.
