St. Coletta's Foundation Partners with Alex and Ani in Orland

St. Coletta's had the opportunity to engage with customers and earn a percentage of sales during a Charmed by Charity Event at Alex and Ani.

Tinley Park, IL – St. Coletta’s of Illinois Foundation recently partnered with Alex and Ani to host a Charmed by Charity giving event at Orland Square Mall. The event took place on Friday, February 8, just in time for Valentine’s Day. During this event, Alex and Ani generously donated 15% of the sales to St. Coletta’s.

Alex and Ani, a jewelry store that specializes in bangle bracelets, necklaces, earrings, and rings, believes in giving back to the community. Charmed by Charity was established to supported local non-profits in their community through a “night of shopping, celebrating and socializing.”

“Alex and Ani believe in the need to be connected to our communities whenever possible to create a positive impact, and I couldn’t agree more,” stated Orland Square Charmed by Charity Lead Michael Cotter. “It was a pleasure to host St. Coletta’s and introduce our customers to such a wonderful cause.”
