On this Veterans Day, Bob’s Discount Furniture is proud to honor and celebrate the service and sacrifice of our employees who are veterans.   We appreciate the invaluable contributions that veterans make to our workforce, enriching our organization with their diverse experiences and unwavering dedication.   To all the veterans on our team, we extend a heartfelt thank you for your service to our country and we are honored that have shared your experiences.  

Bob’s is also privileged to support veterans and active military through our current Café Collection for a Cause partnership with Operation Homefront. During the month of November, Bob’s will double any donation made to Operation Homefront in all store cafés and online. Employees of Bob’s distribution center in Connecticut, who are also veterans, presented a Café Collection for a Cause donation to Operation Homefront for funds raised last year.
