It just feels good to do work with clients that do good, repeatedly. Working recently with Macy’s on their “Shop for a Cause” website, application and database has reminded us how much Macy’s gives back to local communities. Their contributions, leadership and volunteer efforts help create stronger, healthier places to work and live and we are proud to play a small part.

Shop for a Cause is Macy’s national charity shopping day to support national and local nonprofit organizations. And, since 2006, Shop for a Cause has helped non-profits raise more than $28 million for their ongoing charitable efforts.

As of August 1, things just got a whole lot easier with online registration for non-profits nationwide. Macy’s has partnered with Sanger & Eby to develop the site and robust application system. For the first time ever, non-profits can register their organizations for the October 17 fundraiser, select from a list of participating stores, and get email updates for and about the big day — all online. The site and backend database helps Macy’s streamline the entire registration and communication process, with tools to track ticket sales, validate charitable status, and manage specific store events.

We are proud of our continued relationship with a company whose culture, like ours, is deeply rooted in giving back.
