Macy's Shop For A Cause

Macy's

Time: Saturday, September 20, all day
Location: Throughout Los Angeles
Deatails: Each year Macy's hosts its Shop For A Cause program, a one-day shopping event, held on September 20, 2008, where Macy's gives back to local communities through support of local non-profit organizations. The Make-A-Wish Foundation will be selling $5 shopping passes to the event, and will keep the proceeds from every shopping pass we sell. By purchasing a shopping pass, customers can support the Make-A-Wish Foundation, while enjoying a day full of discounts throughout the store. Last year the Shop For A Cause program generated $9.8 million for non-profits across the country.To purchase a shopping pass, please contact Tessa Bowser at  or call 310-788-9474.

In addition, Thanks for Sharing gives Macy's shoppers the opportunity to do their holiday shopping and also help make wishes come true for children with life-threatening medical conditions. Beginning Sept. 20, shoppers may enroll in the Thanks for Sharing program for $25, enabling them to receive a reward card valued at 10 percent of most of their Macy's card purchases* made through Dec. 31. The rewards will come in the form of a reward card sent to participants beginning in February 2009. For each Thanks for Sharing enrollment made, Macy's will donate $10 to charity, with the first $1.5 million nationwide to benefit the American Heart Association. Macy's will donate additional funds raised to the Make-A-Wish Foundation and other charities. *Terms and conditions apply. See store or go to www.macys.com/thanks for details.
