Nicole Nystrom: Why A Giving Back Model is Good for Business
The Clothes Tree opened in 1963 and was a local chain. The store today is the original location. Nicole worked at The Clothes Tree in college and worked for other retailers up North. Nicole came back home to her community in 2013 and bought the store. The Clothes Tree has donated to auctions of various non profit organizations like Old Mill School and Heartland. The store has stepped up when needed. Clothes Tree has had giving trees and has always hosted assistance leagues Winters Eve ticket sales.

The holidays are a the perfect time to give back because thats when people need relief the most.
