The semi-annual Belk Charity Sale is coming in November.
The four-hour shopping sale directly benefits non-profit charities and schools, allowing them to keep 100% of each $5 ticket sold, while providing shoppers an opportunity to save 20 to 70 percent off purchases that day on seldom discounted merchandise.
The semi-annual Belk Charity Sale is on Saturday, Nov. 5, 2011 from 6:00 a.m. to -10:00 a.m.
Belk Charity Sale tickets are available now to participating nonprofit organizations for sale in advance of the event. Organizations keep 100% of each $5 ticket sold. There is no limit to the number of tickets charities can sell, or to the amount of money they can raise. Belk provides tickets and informational materials at no cost to each participating organization.
Beginning Friday, Oct. 28, tickets may also be purchased at Belk stores with all revenues from in-store ticket sales equally divided among participating non-profits and schools at each local store. On the morning of the Belk Charity Sale, participating non-profits and schools at each Belk location will register to win one of three $1,000 donations from Belk.
In 2010 Belk's Charity Sale raised more than $9.5 million for hundreds of participating charitable organizations.
Charity representatives interested in taking part in this one-of-a-kind fundraising event should contact their local Belk store manager for more information. In order to participate in the Belk Charity Sale, organizations must have an IRS Section 501(c)(3) designation from the Internal Revenue Service.
