Macy’s Thanks for Sharing program has helped raise more than $50 million for charitable causes in just six years. With the public’s participation in Thanks for Sharing, Macy’s can increase that number and provide more support to the Make-A-Wish Foundation and other important causes.
Beginning September 19, 2009, for each Thanks for Sharing enrollment fee charged to a Macy’s Card, Macy’s will donate $10, up to a total of $15 million, to the Make-A-Wish Foundation and other charities.
In return, Macy’s cardholders will accumulate rewards equal to 10% of most of their Macy’s Card purchases, from their enrollment date until December 31, 2009.
