Marshalls supports Alzheimer’s Association efforts in fighting the disease

From March 2-15, Marshalls customers across the United States will have the opportunity to donate at checkout in support of the Alzheimer’s Association and its efforts to advance Alzheimer’s-related care, support and research. The campaign adds to the support that The TJX Companies, Inc., has shown in the fight to end Alzheimer’s disease, and is part of a multi-year commitment to raise funds for care support and research programs.

Marshalls Supports the Fight against Alzheimer’s Disease

For the second consecutive year, Marshalls stores nationwide are getting involved in the fight to end Alzheimer’s. Shoppers who visit a Marshalls store between March 2 – 15* can donate to the Alzheimer’s Association at checkout; in doing so, they will help support a vision for a world without Alzheimer’s. Since 2011, The TJX Companies, Inc. – the parent company of Marshalls, TJ Maxx, HomeGoods and Sierra Trading Post in the U.S. – has been active in the fight to end Alzheimer’s. In 2013, the organization made a second multi-year pledge of $1 Million in recognition of the massive impact of Alzheimer’s disease worldwide. As part of the pledge, TJX also became a Presenting Sponsor of the Promise Garden, which serves as the emotional centerpiece of the Walk to End Alzheimer’s events around the country.
