Sydney-based retailer 2nds World is currently running a novel and generous promotion in partnership with Children’s Cancer Institute Australia (CCIA). Until 24 November 2013, 1 per cent of every sale from the retailer’s current catalogue will be donated to CCIA.

A Narta member, 2nds World specialises in appliances and consumer electronics with small imperfections or damage to packaging, factory run-outs and refurbished goods.

Managing director Peter Hammerman said he was proud and delighted to run this combined sales promotion and charity initiative:

Christmas is a wonderful time to spend with family and friends. It is also a time for giving and to offer help, however we can, to people less fortunate than ourselves.

2nds World is proud to be partnering with the CCIA for our Christmas catalogue in 2013. CCIA is the only independent medical research institute in Australia devoted to research into the causes, better treatments, prevention and cure of childhood cancer

I am delighted to be offering 1 per cent of all catalogue sales up to 24 November 2013 as a donation to the CCIA.

The Australian appliance and consumer electronics industry has a proud record of supporting a wide range of charitable causes, such as Blanco’s Gold Partnership with the National Breast Cancer Foundation and Sony’s incredible work raising money through the Sony Foundation and Wharf4Ward event.
