A.C. Moore Arts & Crafts, Inc. stores, in Wilmington and Dover, raised more than $3,560 for Easter Seals Delaware & Maryland’s Eastern Shore during the company’s annual “Crafting a Better World” campaign.
Funds raised will allow people with disabilities to access critical services in the region. The Wilmington store was one of the top 10 fund-raising stores raising $3,135!
“We would like to thank everyone who was involved in raising critically needed dollars that will support people with disabilities in their local area,” Kenan Sklenar, president and CEO of Easter Seals Delaware & Maryland’s Eastern Shore, said. “It is a tribute to our society when we can come together as a community to raise funds and awareness for those in need.”
During the recent in-store fund-raising campaign, A.C. Moore customers were encouraged to donate $1 to Easter Seals at checkout and participate in a free “Make and Take” craft event in March to learn about autism. Crafting is a way for families to play together and connect with their communities and serves as a creative outlet for children with autism. A.C. Moore Arts & Crafts, Inc., stores raised more than $117,500 nationwide for Easter Seals during the company’s camp.
