STEWART'S SHOPS MAKES GIFT TO SLU CAMPAIGN
CANTON - Stewart's Shops has made a gift of $3,000 to Campaign
St. Lawrence, the second in a series of gifts to the University
over five years. Stewart's Shops has indicated its intention to
give a total of $15,000 to the University over the five-year period.
Stewart's Shops is an employee- and family-owned business
with a long-term commitment to its customers and to the communities
in which its shops are located. Approximately 5% of the company's
profits are donated to charities, including
organizations supporting the arts, education, health, civic and social
programs and those benefiting children.
Campaign St. Lawrence, launched publicly in 1997 with a goal
of raising $75 million by the end of 2000, surpassed that goal early
in the year. Based on this success -- over $83 million has been raised
as of May 31, 2000 -- Campaign St. Lawrence has been extended, to raise
a total of $130 million by the end of 2002.
