A number of businesses at Village West will provide a helping hand to the American Red Cross this month.

A select number of businesses will donate a portion of their sales to the local chapter.

Businesses taking part include:

• Los Cabos: The Kansas City, Kan., Chamber of Commerce will hold its Business After Hours event on Wednesday, March 24 from 5-7 p.m.

• Culver's: All day on Thursday, March 25, the business will donate 10 percent of their sales to the American Red Cross. Culver's will also host a blood drive on Saturday, March 27.

• Palmer's Candies and Ice Cream: 10 percent of sales on March 30 will be donated to the American Red Cross.

• Mr. Goodcent's (in Bonner Springs): 10 percent of sales on March 30 will be donated

• Applebee's: 10 percent of "select sales" will be donated to the local Red Cross on April 1.

A part of your normal morning drink of coffee on Feb. 9 will be for a very good cause if you have it at Palmer's Candy.

From 8:30 – 9:30 a.m., Palmer's Candies & Ice Cream in the Legends Shopping Center at Village West will donate 10 percent of their sales to the local American Red Cross.

The local business is joined in the effort by Country Club Bank.
