When I'm not thinking about furniture, I'm thinking about community
I'm on a mission to help as many schools and non-profits in the communities we serve as possible! My Outreach Team and Van are out and about making our cities and towns a better place with each and every stop! From surprising schools with huge checks to rolling up our sleeves at soup kitchens, my team and I are dedicated to helping worthy causes. Here's a short list of just a few of the many Bob's Outreach Programs that are near and dear to our hearts:
In the Café of each store, a larger than life statue of me proudly collects thousands of dollars every month. The collections are driven by our loyal and generous customers who choose to give back to their community, while enjoying free goodies in our Café. Each quarter I select a worthy non-profit to be the recipient of all monies donated by YOU in every Bob's Café chain wide! I then match 100% of your Café Collection donations and give that directly to the non-profit. So...the more you give, the more I give! It's a win-win!
We are proud to support the following organizations as part of my Café Collections for a Cause program:
Who doesn't love a surprise? I know I do and that's why each month, at least one Random Act of Kindness is fulfilled. A Random Act of Kindness gives additional aid to schools and programs for children. Giving varies, depending on need and requests are driven by the community.
I am proud to support the mission of the March of Dimes to prevent birth defects, premature birth and infant mortality. About four million babies are born in the U.S. every year, and the March of Dimes is committed to giving every baby a fighting through research, education, vaccines and breakthroughs. Join our efforts to support the health of moms and babies by joining March for Babies in a city near you and participating in a March for Babies walk.
My team and I are always on the go, helping out various community organizations. Check out my calendar to see my upcoming events.
“A big highlight for myself is having an employee come up to me at a grand opening and say 'One reason I joined Bob's was because I love that you give back to the community and I want to give back too.”
