Shop at Macy's, Support YMCA Youth Programs!
Staff Report / nyclocal.org
The YMCA of Greater New York is partnering with Macy's Herald Square to support youth and community programs during the holiday shopping season. From October 16 to 31, shoppers at Macy's Herald Square can choose to round up their purchases, with the additional change going toward the YMCA's programs.
This initiative aims to enhance the lives of New Yorkers by funding various youth-focused efforts. A key component of this partnership is the Y's Rowe Scholars program, which helps teens explore career opportunities in fields such as fashion, marketing, and IT. Participants will attend career and networking events and engage in a "dress for success" workshop led by Macy's stylists. Additionally, the program awards the Macy’s Scholarship to five Rowe Scholars seniors each year during College Decision Day.
The YMCA expresses gratitude for the support from the Macy's Herald Square team in this endeavor.
