The Y is one of the nation’s top nonprofits, and a leader in providing
summer camp experiences for more than 130 years. There are more than
1,850 day camps at local Ys across the country, 315 overnight camps for
youth and teens, and programs that meet the diverse needs of children
and teens.
“The partnership with the Y was a natural fit for us when it came to
this year’s Celebrate Summer campaign,” said Lauren Anania, director of
cause marketing at Macy’s. “The Y is one of the largest providers of
camp programs in the country, helping kids and teens to have their best
summer ever. We look forward to raising funds through our Fashion Pass
program to send even more kids to summer camp, which provides our kids
with essential leadership and social skills.”
“Attending summer camp is beneficial to every child’s personal growth,
helping kids develop confidence and independence while keeping their
minds and bodies active,” said John Duntley, Senior Camping Specialist,
YMCA of the USA. “Nearly a million children and teens attend a Y
overnight or day camp each year and, thanks to Macy’s, more kids,
especially those in need, will have the opportunity to benefit from
experiencing camp.”
Savings passes are currently available for pre-sale at Macy’s stores.
