News: Stand Out For Good, Inc. Stores To Close for Christmas Eve

September 14, 2023

Prioritizing family & celebrating the joy of Christmas

As we begin hiring for the Christmas season, we wanted to share a press release about our exciting decision to close our stores all day on Christmas Eve.

Stand Out For Good, Inc., the parent company of women’s fashion brand Altar'd State, announces it will be closed all day on December 24 this year. As a national retailer with a strong presence in fashion centers, this decision defies industry standards. Christmas Eve brings a surge of last-minute shoppers to stores, making it one of Stand Out For Good’s busiest days. However, for Co-Founder, Chairman, and CEO Aaron Walters, the importance of associates spending quality time with family outweighs financial gain.

“It’s been a longtime goal of mine to close the stores on Christmas Eve,” said Walters. “Our team works so hard to make the Christmas season happen, and they deserve to rest and relax at home with their families.”

Altar'd State has gained a reputation for its philanthropic efforts and community engagement as a giveback-focused company. Closing its stores on Christmas Eve further exemplifies the brand's dedication to making a positive impact, not only through its giveback partners and customer experience but by prioritizing family and the true reason for Christmas.

“For a seasonal associate, working Christmas Eve is expected,” said Vicky O’Neill, vice president of people development. “We are hoping to differentiate ourselves to prospective seasonal hires and create a new standard for retailers that puts associates and family first.”

Alongside Altar'd State, Stand Out For Good, Inc. encompasses AS Revival, Arula, Tullabee, and Vow'd Weddings. Stores will remain closed through the Christmas holiday, reopening on December 26.

As the Christmas season approaches, Altar'd State invites everyone to join in the spirit of giving, gratitude, and quality time with loved ones. The brands are still hiring for the Christmas season. See available job openings here.
