Macy's Launches Holiday Program to Benefit SOTX

For Immediate Release: September 19, 2007

Attention: Macy's Shoppers

Your purchases can support Special Olympics Texas!

On September 19, Macy's launched a holiday program to benefit 10 Special Olympics programs, including Special Olympics Texas. Through December 31, Macy's will donate $10 for every customer who enrolls in Macy's "Thank for Sharing" program. Customers will be asked at the register to be charged a $25 fee on their Macy's credit cards. Later, they will receive a Macy's gift card worth 10 percent if what they spent (with the exception of furniture and fine jewelry) from September 19 through December 31.

Your purchases through the "Thanks for Sharing" program will help support the more than 25,000 Special Olympics Texas athletes. "Thanks for Shopping" at Macy's! For more information about this program, click here.
