Furniture World News Desk on 8/21/2024

In celebration of the grand opening of their new store in Daytona Beach, Ashley, in collaboration with Hope to Dream, a non-profit organization, announce the donation of 50 beds to Children's Home Society of Florida. This generous donation aims to provide comfort and support to children in need within the Daytona Beach community. This initiative aligns with Ashley’s Beyond Home Promise, a commitment to enriching the lives of those in the communities it serves. 

Since its inception in 2010, Hope to Dream has strived to provide beds to children in need, ensuring they have a comfortable place to sleep and dream. A portion of every mattress purchased at participating Ashley stores helps Hope to Dream provide beds to children in need.  

"At Children's Home Society of Florida, every child deserves a safe and nurturing environment, and having a comfortable bed is a fundamental part of that," said Christopher Rushing, Director of Community Partnership of Children's Home Society of Florida. "Thanks to this donation from Ashley and Hope to Dream, we can ensure that 50 children will have a restful night’s sleep, which is essential for their health and well-being. We are incredibly grateful for this support." 

Children’s Home Society of Florida was established with the goal to end the need for foster care by working with children and families before crises occur. This support is offered through early childhood services, counseling and other mental health services, community partnership schools, and mentoring, outreach and job training programs.  

"We are thrilled to partner with Children’s Home Society of Florida to make a meaningful difference in the lives of children," stated Chris Wantlin, Chief Retail Officer of Ashley. "Our mission at Ashley is not only to furnish homes but to also make a positive impact on the communities we serve. The donation of these 50 beds is a testament to our commitment to community engagement and support." 

The grand opening of the Ashley store in Daytona Beach marks an exciting milestone for the company, and this donation is a part of many initiatives to enrich the community. The new store will offer a wide range of high-quality furniture and home accessories, reinforcing Ashley's presence as the largest furniture store brand in North America.
