Washington, D.C. - Pepco and Goodwill of Greater Washington welcome the summer sun with a major trunk show at the Pepco Edison Place Gallery. The retail pop-up will operate from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. today and Saturday from 11:00 a.m. - 3 p.m. The store will be filled with the finest Goodwill summer apparel as well as a selection of seasonal accessories. All merchandise being sold has been donated to Goodwill and culled from the Washington, DC area stores. To remain true to the mission of the Pepco Edison Place Gallery, the space will also be decorated with historical images commemorating Goodwill's 80th anniversary in our nation's capital.
"We're thrilled to have Goodwill back for a return engagement," said Debbi Jarvis, Pepco Holdings vice president, corporate citizenship and social responsibility. "Goodwill has the knack for transforming our 4,000 sq. ft. art gallery space we've dedicated to help our many nonprofit partners. This is also a wonderful example of how collaboration wins because our employees get a chance to assist Goodwill as volunteers."
"We have had tremendous success hosting pop up shops at the Pepco Edison Place Gallery in the past and are grateful for Pepco's ongoing commitment to serving our community by donating space that will generate revenue to fund our programs and services," said Brendan Hurley, Goodwill of Greater Washington Chief Marketing Officer.
