A.C. Moore Arts & Crafts, Inc. Offers a Creative Wayto Help Easter Seals and Families Living with Autism

Here’s a crafty and creative way families can help people living with autism.

On April 21, 2012, from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m., all A.C. Moore stores will host a family t-shirt decorating event. With the on-site purchase of a t-shirt, customers will get to decorate it for free with a theme supportive of the Act for Autism campaign.

A.C. Moore Arts & Crafts, Inc. has teamed up with Easter Seals again for the third annual in-store campaign and crafting event that asks customers to Act for Autism®.  When you visit any A.C Moore you will be able to donate $1 to Easter Seals’ Act for Autism campaign at checkout Beginning March 25th through April 28th.

The money raised during the campaign supports Easter Seals autism services in the same local communities as A.C. Moore stores, giving thousands of children and adults with autism access to critical services that help them live, learn, work, and play. Since launching the campaign as part of itsCrafting a Better World program in 2010, A.C. Moore customers and store team members have raised more than $300,000 for Easter Seals.
