Are your kids creative? Do they like the idea of helping someone else? How about seeing their artwork come to life?
The Company Store, celebrating their 100th anniversary this year, will accept original artwork from children 12 years and under in this promotion!
The winning piece will be transformed into a comforter print for their ongoing ‘Buy One, Give One’ Comforter Donation Program, in which The Company Store donates a new comforter to a homeless child for every comforter sold. What a great cause! I’m telling my 12 year old niece to get in on this one.
