Ep 50. Operation Warm & Shoes That Fit
Core to Nordstrom's values is our commitment to leaving the world better than we found it. We're proud to partner with a number of different organizations that help us do this. In 2023 we will donate over $12M to 350+ different charity organizations in communities we serve across the United States. So, in the spirit of the giving season, we're using this episode to highlight some of the folks involved with two important causes we've supported over the past several years: Operation Warm and Shoes That Fit. First, we'll hear from Heather Connolly, the VP of Partnerships at Operation Warm, about how the organization provides brand new coats to children in underprivileged communities all across the country. Then we'll catch some of the excitement at an Operation Warm distribution event in the Seattle area with our very own field correspondent, Kent Worthington. After that we'll hear about our second giving partner from Amy Fass, the Executive Director and CEO at Shoes That Fit. Similarly, Shoes That Fit provides new name-brand athletic shoes to kids in need in all 50 states. 2023 marked our 13th year partnering with Shoes That Fit, and together with our customers, we raised more than $1.1 million and donated more than 50,000 pairs of shoes to kids in our local communities. To top it all off we'll hear from loyal Nordstrom customer and Shoes That Fit supporter Kenji Morinaga. This episode is chock-full of good feels and great people, and we hope it adds a little extra warmth to your holiday season. Thanks for tuning in to episode 50. We hope you enjoy it!
