Here are some examples of how we at Macy's Systems and Technology are working to improve our communities: Employee Volunteer Opportunities Our nationally recognized Partners in Time volunteerism program allows all associates-as well as their families-to serve their neighbors through meaningful and fun group projects. Partners in Time activities are carefully structured and organized so they make the best use of our employees' time as they strive for balance in their lives. Partners projects span a range of interests, with areas of special concentration including homelessness, children, education, HIV/AIDS, and animal welfare. Macy's Systems and Technology's commitment to education is demonstrated by a unique grants-for-schools initiative called "Earning for Learning," conducted with support from the Macy's Foundation. Schools nationwide have received more than $869,000 through employee and family volunteerism in support of academic programs. Since its introduction, Macy's Systems and Technology associates provided more than 2,300 hours of substantive educational support for youth, and have generated grants of more than $33,250 for participating schools.
