This little monkey with a curiosity for learning first appeared on bookshelves in 1941 and remains a kids' favorite today. Created by H.A. and Margret Rey, these famed books have sold more than 40 million copies and captured the hearts and minds of readers worldwide. These classic story books and plush make great gifts for the holidays and are only available at Kohl's through December.
"Curious George is one of the most beloved and recognizable characters in children's literature, teaching children to always share, care and help one another," said Julie Gardner, executive vice president and chief marketing officer of Kohl's Department Stores. "Kohl's is pleased to offer these playful books and plush at a value our customers can appreciate now and throughout the Christmas season. They can also feel good knowing that their purchase is benefiting children nationwide."
At Kohl's, 100 percent of the net profits from sales of the Curious George books and plush will benefit children's health and education initiatives nationwide. Since the Kohl's Care for Kids program's inception in 2000, Kohl's has turned $5 merchandise into more than $102 million for children's initiatives nationwide.
In addition to the merchandise program, Kohl's Cares for Kids features the Kohl's Kids Who Care(R) Scholarship Program, which recognized young volunteers with more than $300,000 in scholarships and prizes this year; the A-Team Program, which encourages associate volunteerism and provided more than $3.2 million in grants to youth-focused nonprofit organizations in 2007 alone; and fundraising gift cards for schools and youth-serving organizations.
