It is Christmas in July for Goodwill of Central Arizona, one of the oldest and largest nonprofit agencies in the state. At their retail locations throughout the Valley, Yuma and Prescott, various holiday decorations and merchandise will be available through July 31 with funds benefiting Goodwill's Put People to Work mission. “Christmas in July is always a favorite event for our shoppers,” says Jackie Halleen, vice president of retail operations. “Holiday décor and merchandise is not normally discounted, so we’re encouraging people to take advantage of it and beat the rush of holiday shopping.”
