Home Furniture Plus Bedding: Continuing to Make a Difference for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital

When April arrives, the dedicated Home Furniture Plus Bedding team eagerly launches their annual fundraising campaign supporting St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. This year marked another milestone as the employees surpassed all expectations, making one of the most significant donations in the history of this charitable event at Home Furniture. With unwavering enthusiasm, each employee from all locations wholeheartedly participated, rallying their customers, friends, and families from Beaumont, Texas to Baton Rouge, Louisiana, to join them in bringing hope to the children of St. Jude. 

For seven consecutive years, Home Furniture's annual fundraising campaign has been a beacon of generosity, with a cumulative contribution of over $200,000 donated to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. This remarkable achievement stands as a testament to the compassion and dedication of the company's customers, employees, and the matching contributions from the corporate office.

On June 15, 2023, a momentous occasion unfolded at Home Furniture's Distribution Center as Andrea Courville, the Area Managing Director for the Gulf Coast of ALSAC – the fundraising and awareness organization for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital – attended a special check presentation ceremony. Representatives from each store team alongside members of the corporate offices gathered to celebrate the incredible achievement. This year alone, the collective efforts resulted in a donation of $40,087.01 to support the vital work performed at St. Jude.
