Innovative Mattress Solutions Gives Gift Of Sleep To Those In Need

Furniture World News Desk on 12/29/2013


Innovative Mattress Solutions (IMS), parent company of mattress retailers Mattress Warehouse, Sleep Outfitters and Mattress King, announced the names of the six different charitable organizations to which it will be donating 30 mattresses based on Facebook voting.

Earlier this year, to celebrate the company’s 30th anniversary, IMS gave away a queen mattress set each week for 30 weeks. People registered each week on Facebook and the weekly winner was selected by random drawing. IMS asked those winners to nominate local charities to receive another 30 mattresses.

IMS dubbed the more recent, charitable campaign the Gift of Sleep.

“This year we gave away 30 new mattresses to celebrate our company’s 30th anniversary,” said IMS owner Kim Knopf.” Now we’ve asked our 30 winners to nominate charities in their hometowns. The top six vote-getting charities will receive five mattresses each.”

Fifteen of IMS’s 30 winners answered the call and nominated local charities in the winners’ communities.

Facebook voting began midnight Dec. 13 and ran through Dec. 24. Each of the top six vote-getting charities will receive five new mattresses each from IMS.

The winning charitable organizations announced on Dec. 26 are:

  • Home of the Innocents, Louisville, Ky., nominated by week 3 winners Diane Mattei of Louisville 

  • St. Paul de Vincent Society, Marietta, Oh., nominated by week 18 winner Theresa Clift of Marietta, Oh

  • Faith Mission, Columbus, Oh., nominated by week 27 winner Jennifer Nick of Hilliard, Oh.

  • Chrysalis House, Lexington, Ky., nominated by week 28 winner Kimberly Sexton of Lexington, Ky.

  • Latrobe Street Mission, Parkersburg, W.Va., nominated by week 29 winner Tracy Browning of Mineral Wells, W.Va.

  • Bethany House, Cincinnati, Oh., nominated by week 30 winner Lori Kroeger of Cincinnati

IMS officials will contact all winning charities next week in order to make arrangements to deliver the mattresses.
