Aeon Happy Yellow Receipt Campaign
Aeon supports community volunteer groups along with our customers.
The Aeon Happy Yellow Receipt Campaign is held on Aeon Day, which falls on the 11th of each month. When customers place a yellow receipt in a box at the store with a community volunteer group name, Aeon donates items equal to 1% of the total purchase value to the group.
Step 1. Take your receipt.
After shopping, take the yellow receipt from the cashier.
Customers who need to keep the receipt can have another issued at the service counter specifically for putting in the box.
Step 2. Place the receipt in the group box of your choosing.
Place the yellow receipt in the box. Each community volunteer group has its own box on which you can find information about its mission.
Simply place the receipt in the box of the group you want to support.
Step 3. An equivalent of 1% of the total purchase is donated.
The amount on receipts for each group is tallied and items equal to 1% of the total purchase value are donated to the applicable group. For 1 million yen, ¥10,000 worth of items are donated to help the group.
A total of 5.5 billion yen worth of gifts will be donated between 2001 and February 2025.

What is Aeon Day?
Aeon operates on the principles of pursuing peace, respecting humanity, and contributing to local communities, always with the customers point of view as its core. With this in mind, we are engaged in a variety of environmental preservation activities as a kind of corporate citizen along with customers in the community.
When changing our name from Jusco to Aeon in August 2001, we used the opportunity to establish Aeon Day, which takes place on the 11th of every month. With our corporate philosophy of "Transforming daily life and living into a future filled with dreams" as our guidepost, this day is set aside for all employees to engage in activities that contribute to the community, based on the themes of 'ecology' (environment) and 'local' which we feel should be embodied in the community.
