“The ‘Buy a Coat and We’ll Donate One’ campaign is one of our favorite campaigns of the Macy’s holiday season,” said Sam Harrison, Macy’s vice president of corporate communications, giving and volunteerism. “By encouraging customers to shop for a cause, we reinforce our belief in the wonder of giving at a time when people need it most. Our partnership with Clothes4Souls has allowed us to provide warmth, hope and dignity to men, women and children for more than six years and we are excited to continue doing so with the support of our vendors, customers and local communities.”

Clothes4Souls, a division of the nonprofit Soles4Souls, creates sustainable jobs and provides relief through the distribution of clothing around the world.

"Together with the help of Macy's, its vendors, and dozens of agencies around the country, we have helped more than 200,000 people who desperately need a winter coat to stay warm. We’re thankful to Macy’s for their continued partnership and helping people in need right here in the U.S."
