When it’s time to make a purchase, simply present your CHAMPION NUMBER at checkout. Donations will be made on full-price merchandise only, subject to individual store policy. Donations on participating store gift certificates and special order merchandise are subject to individual store policy. Product exclusions apply.

- Every shopper needs their own number. Each shopper must have their own Champion Number to participate; one number should not be shared by several shoppers.
- Shopped Champions for Charity® before? Registrants from 2025 and prior are pre-registered for 2026 using their most current charity selection(s), and receive their Champion Number by email in mid-October and again right before the event. Changes can be made online or in person at Concierge Services through December 5, 2026.
- Keep your number handy. Your Champion Number arrives instantly by email, and you can add it to your Apple Wallet. All stores will have a QR code at their register so you can register or pull up your number on the spot.
- Exclusions. Exclusions include select stores, gift certificates, special order merchandise, and possibly other specific products; check with each store. For example: Hermes, Tesla, and RH.
