Shop. Save. Support.
For the 16th consecutive year, Angelitos de Oro, a volunteer auxiliary group based in Santa Ana, is partnering with South Coast Plaza for Angelitos Card Week benefiting Big Brothers Big Sisters of Orange County and the Inland Empire. Taking place this year from Oct. 4-10, the week-long shopping fundraiser offers cardholders 20 percent savings at more than 100 participating South Coast Plaza boutiques and restaurants.
Cards are on sale for $60 at angelitosdeoro.org. Joining longtime participants such as Bottega Veneta, Escada, Oscar de la Renta and Saint Laurent, new retailers and restaurants participating include adidas Originals, Crabtree & Evelyn, kate spade new york, Martin Lawrence Galleries, Pottery Barn, Stella McCartney, UGG, Weekend Max Mara, Williams-Sonoma, Mezzet Mediterranean Cuisine, Nékter Juice Bar and Vaca.
All proceeds from card sales will be donated to Big Brothers Big Sisters. Over the last 56 years, Angelitos de Oro has contributed more than $6 million for the organization’s one-to-one mentoring programs for youth facing adversity.
If you purchase the card by noon on Friday, Sept. 29, you’ll also receive an invitation to the Preview Day Champagne reception and luncheon, which takes place Oct. 3 at 11 a.m. in South Coast Plaza’s Jewel Court. During the reception, a fashion presentation led by Debra Gunn Downing, executive director of marketing at South Coast Plaza, will feature styles from participating Preview Day stores including Bottega Veneta, Diane von Furstenberg, Escada, Intermix, kate spade new york, M Missoni, Oscar de la Renta, REDValentino and Stuart Weitzman. A highlight of this year’s event is a showcase of limited-edition merchandise created exclusively for South Coast Plaza’s 50th anniversary.
Shoppers who present their Angelitos Cards save 20 percent one day early at Preview Day boutiques; 10 percent of proceeds from all sales at those stores on Preview Day will be donated to Big Brothers Big Sisters.
South Coast Plaza is at 3333 Bristol St. in Costa Mesa.
