Every month we keep you in the philanthropic loop with ways you can help in our What Gives segment of Advocate (which should be shortly arriving). But of course, worthy mentions come in after we go to press, so here’s a blog bonus:

Wednesday night from 6 to 9, MERGE will donate 15 percent of its sales to Artreach, a nonprofit that brings arts and culture to economically disadvantaged kids in Dallas. And, if you mention Artreach while shopping at MERGE this Thursday through Saturday, you’ll get 15 percent off your purchase.

Thursday night from 4 p.m. to close, several other Preston Royal Village shops will also be donating a portion of their sales to Artreach. Those shops include Molto Formaggio, Popolos, Smashing Times, Talula, Tango Zango, Write Selection and The Purple Cow.

Thursday night from 5-9, Luxury on Lovers will be hosting a trunk show featuring Karla Refojo’s handmade Tibetan jewelry. Ten percent of those proceeds will be given to the North Texas Food Bank.
