WASHINGTON, D.C. (August 22, 2016) -Pepco is partnering with Goodwill to host the Goodwill Annual Summer Trunk Show in the Pepco Edison Place Gallery on Aug. 25 - Aug. 26. The public is invited to attend on both days from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m.

The charity event will feature a hand-picked selection of seasonal clothing and accessories from Goodwill's retail stores for purchase.  

Proceeds from the two day event will benefit Goodwill's workforce development initiatives which provide training and resources for local residents seeking to develop and enhance their skills to meet current and future employment requirements.

Pepco has supported and partnered with the Goodwill for the past four years for this event and remains committed to supporting the communities it serves. Last year's event generated more than $5,000 dollars for charity.

"We appreciate the work that Goodwill does in the community and we're happy to support a cause that adheres to our values of contributing to the communities we serve," said Donna Cooper, Pepco President. "We encourage the expansion and implementation of workforce development programs that help to prepare our community for career opportunities."  

The Pepco Edison Place Gallery is Pepco's dedicated community space and is available to nonprofit organizations doing business in our service territory. The venue is open with free admission Tuesday through Friday and is located at 702 Eighth St. NW, Washington, D.C.
