Macy’s and Clothes4Souls™ team up for national coat donation program to share the warmth this season
Macy’s is pleased to announce the return of “Buy 1 & We’ll Give 1,” a coat donation program in partnership with anti-poverty organization Clothes4Souls. From Tuesday, Oct. 27 through Monday, Nov. 2, Macy’s will donate one coat, up to 50,000 coats, to Clothes4Souls, for
every coat purchased in the men’s, women’s, juniors’ and children’s outerwear departments at Macy’s stores and on #macys.com. The new, never-worn coats will be distributed nationwide starting in November. To help customers save while they give back, Macy’s will offer 30-50 percent off a large selection of outerwear during the campaign.
“Now in our third year and having donated nearly 100,000 coats, Macy’s is delighted to continue our program with Clothes4Souls for the upcoming winter season,” said Holly Thomas, Macy’s group vice president of Media Relations and Cause Marketing. “With a comprehensive network of nonprofit partners, Clothes4Souls makes positive contributions every day to local communities where help is needed the most. With the support of our store associates and customers, we’re excited to aim for another 50,000 coats giveaway.”
Clothes4Souls is a division of Soles4Souls, a not-for-profit committed to fighting poverty through the collection and distribution of clothing to individuals in poverty and victims of natural disasters. Clothes4Souls works with nonprofit partners such as homeless shelters, afterschool programs and relief organizations to provide clothes to those across the United States and around the world.
“It’s such a privilege to be working with Macy’s for the third year in a row,” said Buddy Teaster, CEO of Soles4Souls. “Over the past two years, we have put coats into the hands of people who need them most. All across America, folks will be better able to weather the brutal cold, which is critical when traveling to work and school. Macy’s and its customers understand the power they have to make a difference and we couldn’t be happier to be a partner in this work.” As part of the campaign, coats donated average in retail price from $40 to $100.

& We’ll Give 1” and view this year’s outerwear assortment, visit #macys.com.
