Belz Factory Outlet World – Las Vegas will present Mayor Oscar
Goodman with an oversized check for $5,331.92 this Thursday. The funds
will directly benefit the United Way Displaced Workers Fund and the
Las Vegas Fire Fighters Benefit Association.
The donations were raised during a "Local Heroes Appreciation
Weekend" held November 17th and November 18th. The fundraiser,
which was a joint initiative of the Developers of Outlet Centers and
the Outlet Retail Merchants Association, asked more than 100 outlet
shopping centers nationwide to join together to recognize the contribution
of police, fire and emergency service professionals who serve their
communities. Owners of participating outlet stores contributed a percentage
of their sales during the weekend and Belz also made a donation of its
own.
