of America's Operation Backpack.

The Macy's Arden Fair community service group Partners in Time donated 22 new backpacks full of essential school supplies to Volunteers of America July 23 as their contribution to Operation Backpack.

Service manager Joey Love, merchandiser Leilani Lim and Dooney & Bourke specialist Barbara Campbell presented Volunteers of America Public Relations & Marketing Officer Barry Wisdom with the jam-packed backpacks.

Macy's Partners in Time employee volunteer program celebrates its 18th anniversary this year. The program, which won the Points of Light Foundation Award for Excellence in Workplace Volunteerism, boasts a simple, successful mission: "Sharing Our Time To Make A Difference."

In 2006 alone, 67,000 employees, families and friends nationwide volunteered more than 130,000 hours of time to complete 2,200 Partners in Time projects on behalf of nonprofit organizations like Volunteers of America.

Partners in Time projects support a wide range of community causes, including support of HIV/AIDS-related efforts, children and school partnerships, the "Bag Hunger" food drive, women's issues such as breast cancer research and domestic violence prevention, and housing and homelessness.

Macy's Arden Fair was one of four Macy's in the Sacramento market participating in Operation Backpack 2007. Macy's Sunrise Mall, Macy's Country Club and Macy's Downtown Plaza hosted public drop-off boxes in their respective Gift Wrap departments, and held employee drives.
