Exclusive Winnie the Pooh Titles at Kohl's, Profits Benefit Kohl�s Cares� program
Kohl’s Department Stores has the perfect way for kids to bounce back to school – with a little help from Tigger and Pooh! Continuing to celebrate the tenth anniversary of its Kohl’s Cares® program, from now through the end of September, Kohl’s is featuring the adventures of Winnie the Pooh and friends, with four exclusive books from Disney Book Group and coordinating plush toys for just $5 each. The books, Winnie the Pooh: Nature’s True Colors; Winnie the Pooh: One Special Tree; Winnie the Pooh: Roo’s Big Nature Day; and Winnie the Pooh: Somebody’s Treasure and coordinating plush toys of Pooh, Tigger and Eeyore are available for just $5 each.
Through the Kohl’s Cares cause merchandise program, 100 percent of the net profit from the sale of these items benefits children’s health and education initiatives nationwide. Since the program’s inception, Kohl’s has turned $5 merchandise into more than $150 million to help make a positive difference in the lives of children. All items are available for just $5 each at 1,067 Kohl’s stores nationwide or online at Kohls.com.
“We’re thrilled to celebrate the tenth anniversary of the Kohl’s Cares program – a decade of giving back to children and families in the communities we serve. Together with our customers, we have raised more than $150 million to make a positive difference in the lives of children nationwide,” said Julie Gardner, Kohl’s executive vice president and chief marketing officer. “The books and plush toys are always an incredible value at just $5 each. This season, parents can share Winnie the Pooh’s message of friendship and caring for others while feeling good about supporting a program that gives back.”
Kohl’s Cares serves up something for adults, as well, this season. In her Deliciously Deceptive cookbook, Jessica Seinfeld, a mother of three, shares her tips and recipes on sneaking healthy things into foods kids love to eat.
In addition to the merchandise program, Kohl’s Cares features the Kohl’s Kids Who Care® Scholarship Program, which recognizes more than 2,100 young volunteers with a total of $410,000 in scholarships and prizes this year; the Associates in Action program, which encourages associate volunteerism and provided more than $10 million in grants to youth-focused nonprofit organizations last year alone; and fundraising gift cards for schools and youth-serving organizations.
