WEST CHESTER, Pa., Oct. 12, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- QVC®, a world leader in video commerce, will air the 28th"QVC Presents FFANY Shoes on Sale" live across multiple platforms, including the broadcast on Tuesday, October 12 at 5 PM, EDT, with extended opportunities to shop for the cause on QVC's digital platforms through December 31, 2021. To date, QVC Presents FFANY Shoes on Sale, in collaboration with the Fashion Footwear Charitable Foundation, has raised more than $59.5 million for first-step cancer research and education.
Qurate Retail Group, which comprises seven leading retail brands – QVC, HSN®, Zulily®, Ballard Designs®, Frontgate®, Garnet Hill®, and Grandin Road®, believes in a purpose that is bigger than just selling things. Their relationships and platforms reaching millions of people worldwide give them a unique ability to bring people and resources together on a global scale. Challenges such as inequality, climate change, and community wellbeing require bold goals, fresh thinking, renewed commitment, and collective action. That is why Corporate Responsibility is a critical part of their internal and external mission called Our Path Forward, underpinning their Purpose, Priorities, and Principles as an organization. Qurate Retail Group is part of Qurate Retail, Inc. (NASDAQ: QRTEA, QRTEB, QRTEP).
The perennially popular campaign kicked off on QVC.com in early October and relies on wholesale donations from prominent footwear brands. Available to shop are thousands of brand name, donated shoes and accessories offered at sale prices of at least half off retail value or comparable retail value*, with a minimum of 70% of the purchase price† benefitting the Fashion Footwear Charitable Foundation.
"QVC's long-standing commitment to supporting its communities, externally and internally, is designed to inspire a more sustainable way to retail, and the funding of research and education for devastating diseases such as breast cancer is such an important priority," says long-time QVC Program Host Jane Treacy. "For nearly 30 years, I have been proud to host the QVC Presents FFANY Shoes on Sale broadcast. My sister is a survivor, and during the show, I honor her and everyone touched by breast cancer. My greatest hope is that one day, a cure is found. I am so grateful to everyone involved in our fundraising, especially since we are so close to $60 million raised. Together we have, and will, make a difference."
