Giving back has been part of Bob’s core values for over 30 years. We are committed to supporting the communities where we do business and we value our charitable partners who enable us to give back from coast to coast. We’re proud to share that this year we have donated hundreds of furniture items and mattresses, given over $100K in Random Act of Kindness donations to schools and non-profits, issued over $200K to support hunger relief, and volunteered over 500 combined hours to support community members in need. This Giving Tuesday, we want to say, “THANK YOU” to our community allies and our team for giving back the Bob’s way!
Cafe Collections for a Cause
Thank you to our guests for contributing to our Café Collections for a Cause fundraising. Every quarter we collect your donations in our store cafés coast to coast and match your contributions dollar-for-dollar to support non-profits serving every community. We’re proud to share that, with your contributions, we have contributed more than $180K through this program since last year.
Little Bob, Big Love
This year, we introduced our Plushies for Charity program chainwide, featuring Bob’s first-ever Little Bob plushie. We contribute $5 from the sale of every Little Bob plushie to our charitable partners. Bob’s supported Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals for the first half of the year donating $25,000. We are currently fundraising for Family Promise and for the USO to benefit North Carolina Operations in participating stores.
Teaming Up for Good
Bob’s partners with national sports teams to support organizations that provide housing, furniture, and financial assistance to those in need. We’re honored to give more than $100K in in-kind contributions of furniture and mattresses for those in need through these activations.
The Gift of Kindness
Bob’s has a tradition of giving Random Acts of Kindness donations in celebration of every new store we open. This year, we’re proud to contribute more than $100K to help support local schools and non-profits near every store we open. This year we also introduced our new partner, the USO, and have contributed over $35,000 to the organization. We’re proud to offer Random Acts of Kindness to new partners in need and to support charitable organizations that are doing so much in our communities.
Hunger Relief
Bob’s supports hunger relief through participation in meal packing events and direct contributions to hundreds of food banks across the country. This year, we are proud to donate more than $200K to support hunger relief nationwide surpassing $2M in all-time giving.
Helping Hands
From making beds, to packing back packs, to landscaping, Bob’s employees have contributed their time giving back to organizations in our communities totaling more than 500 volunteer hours.
Homes to Love
Bob’s knows new furniture is more than a refresh- it’s dignity and comfort for those who deserve it most. We’re proud to donate furnishings to those in need to help make houses into homes. Along with our community partners, we helped to furnish apartments for young adults transitioning out of homelessness or foster care, common areas for centers supporting homeless veterans, home-away-from-home spaces for our nation’s military and hundreds of beds for children to support a good night’s sleep.
