November 18th, 2008 Can You Shop and Benefit the Environment? Absolutely, positively, yes! Washington Square just launched the Give Green gift card—the ultimate gift. It’s the first ever gift card to give back to an environmental nonprofit organization. Do more with your gift card purchase—this is feel-good shopping!
With each Give Green gift card purchase, Macerich (Washington Square's parent company) donates $.70 to American Forests' Global ReLeaf program. Founded in 1875, American Forests is a world leader in planting trees for environmental restoration. Macerich is committing to a minimum of $100,000 to help American Forests improve our environment, but with your help, that's just the beginning.Because it's an American Express branded card, it can be used at most Washington Square stores and restaurants and millions of merchants nationwide! Want to personalize your Give Green Gift card? Package it with another, smaller gift (like an all natural soy wax candle from Yankee Candle, a bamboo cotton throw from Pottery Barn, or a earth friendly cosmetics from Sephora) and wrap it all up in a big bow! Gift cards are available at Washington Square Guest Services. Give the Gift of Green this holiday season—your friends and family can feel good about their purchases, knowing that they’re doing just a little bit more to help the environment.
