Saks supports Red Cross, local charities with new initiative

NEW YORK — Saks has introduced its Saks Love Your Cause Initiative, which will give 5% of all registered purchases to the American Red Cross and select local organizations, during February.

“Saks Fifth Avenue is committed to our local communities. We appreciate our customers’ charitable involvement and look forward to giving back locally for a second year with this exciting and newly implemented national program,” Steve Sadove, chairman and CEO, Saks Inc., said.

Customers may select which local charity they wish to support from Saks Fifth Avenue’s roster of charities.

Saks.com will also be supporting the program, with 5% of online purchases made using a registered Saks card to benefit the Red Cross. Saks Fifth Avenue OFF 5TH will be asking customers their charity preference at point of purchase.
