Put on your walking shoes. The 22nd annual UAMS Partners Card Week is officially on, and there’s some serious shopping to be done.
If you need a reminder, here’s how it works: Purchasing a $50 Partners Card gets you 20% discounts and specials to nearly 200 of your favorite local shops and restaurants throughout central Arkansas.
Full proceeds go toward the Winthrop P. Rockefeller Cancer Institute Auxiliary’s work for UAMS, having raised more than $3 million over the course of the card’s history for patient needs such as transportation, nutritional support and housing assistance.
“Partners Card is about more than shopping and dining. It’s about coming together as a community to ease the burden of patients going through cancer treatment,” says Peyton Woodyard, Partners Card chair and longtime WPRCI Auxiliary member. “Every card purchased directly impacts patients and their families during one of the most difficult times in their lives.”
If you’re wondering which stores participate, here’s a very small sampling:
- B.Barnett
- Domestic Domestic
- Barbara/Jean
- E.Leigh’s
- Eggshells Kitchen Co.
