Community Giving
BedMart, Portland’s largest locally and family owned mattress retailer, announces its donation of 50 Tempur-Pedic mattresses and GBS Enterprise mattress protectors to local nonprofit Portland Rescue Mission, with support from the vendors. This year BedMart will donate over $50,000 worth of product at the summer donation event.
Portland Rescue Mission focuses on helping men, women and children as they battle homelessness and addiction. They offer emergency shelter, hot meals and other services to help community members during their time of need.
“For 70 years, Portland Rescue Mission has been here to give hope and restore life to men, women and children struggling with hunger, homelessness and addiction,” says Mike Deckon, Director of Marketing for Portland Rescue Mission. “A vital part of that process is being able to provide warm, safe shelter when people come to us in need. That is why we’re so very grateful to BedMart for their generous gift of mattresses that will be used in our New Life Recovery Program. We would like to say “Thank you!” on behalf of all of our guests who will rest well for years to come.”
BedMart is pleased to partner with this organization and contribute to help Portland community members in their time of need.
“The BedMart family is proud to contribute to an organization that positively impacts lives in the community,” says Elana Stone, Vice President and Spokeswoman of BedMart Mattress Superstores. “It’s our goal to bring a good night’s sleep to the communities we serve and give back whenever we can.”
The donation event will take place at Portland Rescue Mission’s Shepherd’s Door location at 12:00 p.m. on August 23.
