Macy’s Staffers Gather ‘Good Cents’ for Housatonic Habitat

Macy's at Danbury Fair Mall selected Housatonic Habitat for Humanity for its “Make Good Cents for Your Community” event, raising close to $3,000. For two weeks, Macy’s employees asked thousands of shoppers to round up their purchase totals to the next dollar, and donate the extra change to Housatonic Habitat.

Danbury Macy’s has a long-standing commitment to Housatonic Habitat for Humanity, and partners in other events throughout the year, including the annual ‘Wrapping for Habitat” fund-raising event in December. Executive Director Fran Normann said, “Macy’s has been a major sponsor in our home building program.”

Housatonic Habitat for Humanity focuses on making a meaningful difference in the lives of qualified working families by promoting financial stability and self-sufficiency through ownership of affordable homes. Households often consist of those who have limited assets and who have jobs that also have income caps.
