American Express Charity in Japan

Are you planning to go shopping this weekend? If you are, American Express is putting on a one month Charity from today, Nov15 until Dec14. If you shop using your American Express card at the partner shops of Banana Republic and Barneys NY in Japan, you will get a 5% discount and 100 yen will be donated to the non-government-organization Médecins du Monde (France). The donation will be used for polio vaccine and prevention of malaria.



You can participate in this charity at the following shops.
Barneys New York (Ginza, Shinjuku, Yokohama)
Banana Republic (17 stores throughout Japan. Details will be updated on their website)

If you need a winter coat anyway, this can add some value on your selection of stores. But be careful not to buy more than you need... that will not be eco-friendly!
