United Way of Santa Barbara
County Partners with Macy’s for Sixth Annual Shop For A Cause Day
Macy’s helps local charity raise funds and
awareness for important cause
Santa Barbara, CA – August 8, 2011 - Macy’s will partner with United Way of Santa Barbara County (UWSBC) to
invite customers to participate in Macy’s sixth annual "Shop for a
Cause" charity shopping event. Macy’s 2011 Shop for a Cause will take
place on August 27, 2011; customers can purchase tickets now from UWSBC. Macy’s Shop for a Cause is a unique one-day-only shopping event created
to support local charities’ fundraising efforts, which has helped raised
more than $38 million for charities across the country since 2006.
"Macy’s is committed to giving back to our
local communities. Our annual Shop for a Cause Program, which has raised
more than $38 million for local and national charities in the past five
years, is meaningful for us because it gives our customers and
associates an opportunity to give back to the local charities, schools
and non-profits that matter a great deal to them," said Martine Reardon,
Macy’s Executive Vice President of Marketing. "We are proud to offer our
customers an easy way to make a positive difference while enjoying great
savings at Macy’s."
Macy’s has provided UWSBC with shopping
passes to sell for $5 each. The organization will keep 100% of
every ticket it sells. The more UWSBC sells the more money it will
raise!
By purchasing a shopping pass to the event
from UWSBC, customers can support UWSBC’s commitment to improving education, health and financial stability
for children, families, and seniors in our south Santa Barbara County
community, while enjoying a day of spectacular discounts, entertainment,
and
special events. Pass holders will enjoy special discounts on most
regular, sale and clearance purchases all day. Some exclusions apply.
"We are excited about the opportunity to
partner with Macy’s in an effort that will benefit the children,
families, and seniors in our Santa Barbara County community. When
organizations, businesses and individuals come together like this,
everyone benefits in the short and long term," said Paul Didier,
President and CEO for UWSBC. "To create change, especially long-term
change, working together and living united is critical."
