JCPenney Afterschool Fund Because “Every Day
Matters” in the life of a child, JCPenney directs its corporate giving toward
helping our nation’s most valuable resource – our children. This school
year, more than 20,000 children across the nation are participating in safe,
life-enriching afterschool programs thanks to the JCPenney Afterschool Fund
and its contribution of more than $9.25 million to the YMCA, Boys & Girls
Clubs of America, The National 4-H Council and the United Way of America.
JCPenney customers also helped support the Fund this year by contributing
$3.3 million through the Afterschool Round-up program, a new initiative that
invited JCPenney customers to “round-up” their purchases to the nearest
whole dollar and donate the difference.
100% of JCPenney Afterschool Round-up donations go directly
to assisting children.
