Back by popular demand, The Florida Aquarium is offering free admission to Goodwill donors again this fall.
During
September, each person who drops off clothing or household items at any
Goodwill Industries-Suncoast donation site will receive a coupon good
for up to three free tickets to The Florida Aquarium, one for each paid
adult ticket. That’s a “BOGO” savings of up to $65.85, just for getting
rid of items you no longer need! The coupons are redeemable at The
Florida Aquarium until Nov. 30, 2012.
The
incentive is intended to boosts donations to Goodwill during a period
when they typically drop off, following the back-to-school season.
The
partnership between the two nonprofit organizations is a natural, since
Goodwill and The Florida Aquarium are linked by their mutual commitment
to the environment. Items donated to Goodwill are “repurposed” rather
than being relegated to landfills. Donations support Goodwill’s services
for people who are disabled, elderly or unemployed.
