The Company Store Helps Homeless Children

The Company Store launched its “Buy One, Give One Comforter Program,” benefitting thousands of homeless children throughout the United States. Now through January 31, 2012, The Company Store will donate a comforter to a child with every comforter purchased from their Web site or catalog.

The comforters will be delivered through Family Promise, a non-profit company committed to helping homeless and low-income families achieve lasting independence, and their affiliates throughout the United States.

“The Company Store’s loyal customers can participate with us in an act of kindness and generosity every time they purchase a comforter,” said Karen Feldman, director at The Company Store. “There are a significant number of homeless children in this country who are living without a warm bed, and The Company Store is committed to bringing some comfort and warmth to children in need throughout the year, not just during the holiday season.”

Last year, the company donated “tens of thousands of comforters” and plans to increase the amount this year, Feldman said.

“A comforter is something many of us may take for granted, but it makes a big impact on the lives of the children we work with daily — not only by keeping them warm at night, but by providing them in some small way with the comfort of home at a very difficult time,” said Karen Olson, president of Family Promise.
