Department store operator Dillard's Inc, this year, is proud to inform that it will make a contribution to Ronald McDonald House Charities as a result of its 2005 "This Christmas Dillard's Brings you...Broadway" CD sales.
Dillard's produced a CD with 12 songs from Broadway. The CD was sold in all Dillard's stores as well as on line. As in years past, the company is donating all profits from the CD sales to Ronald McDonald Houses serving local communities.
