Macy's Joins Forces with Crowned Pearls of Wellington
to Support SWAG Program



Wellington is happy to announce that Macy's at the Mall at Wellington Green has partnered with the Crowned Pearls of Wellington to make a positive impact in our community. In an endeavor to support our young residents, Macy's has selected the Students Working to Achieve Greatness (SWAG) program as a beneficiary of their local charities round-up campaign.

From October 16th through October 31st, 2023, Macy's customers will have the opportunity to participate in a campaign that can truly make a difference in the lives of Wellington's young students. During this time frame, Macy's customers can voluntarily round up their purchases to the nearest dollar (up to $0.99) when checking out at the register, with the donated funds going directly to the SWAG program.

The SWAG program, a key initiative in Wellington, is dedicated to preparing high school students for future success by providing personal and professional development opportunities. This year-round program is designed to help empower and motivate at-risk and under-served high school students in order to overcome social and economic barriers that impact their quality of life. Through Macy's round-up campaign, customers can become champions of this vital cause, directly contributing to the growth and development of the young minds who will shape the future of Wellington.

 

The Crowned Pearls of Wellington, a local nonprofit organization, is the driving force behind this collaboration. Their dedication to the community and commitment to uplifting the next generation aligns perfectly with the SWAG program's mission.
