Sofa Mart® and Furniture Row Outlet® Team with World Vision to Help the Children of Mexico

Furniture World Magazine

National furniture retailer Sofa Mart® and Furniture Row Outlet®, retail brands of Furniture Row® Companies, will once again work together to aid the estimated two million street children in Mexico City. The charity campaign titled, "Hope is Always in Style," allocates $20 for every sofa sold at the stores nationwide to World Vision for the duration of the campaign which runs from August 22 through September 12. The campaign was developed in 2000, and all of the proceeds have benefited World Vision's "Ninos de las Calle" (street children) program. The program assists in the wide-spread problem of homeless children in Mexico City. Specifically designed to enable street children to become more self sufficient, and move into a stable environment, the program focuses on providing educational support, shelter, children's homes, and family reintegration whenever possible.
