Whitmor Brings Love and Hope
to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital
Whitmor
is putting their design skills and creativity to use for a great cause.
They’ve created a bright and cheerful pattern specifically for St. Jude
Children’s Research Hospital. Their new pattern will be applied to
several of their core, best-selling laundry items. When you purchase
this design filled with love, hope, courage, strength and heart you’ll
also be giving back. 10% of the wholesale cost of the St.Jude-inspired pattern will go back to St. Jude’s to help with research.
The
hospital does remarkable work for children around the world every day
and Whitmor is proud to contribute in this way. The words on the pattern
were just a few the Whitmor team came up with that represent the hard
work and dedication St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital provides to
their precious patients. Whitmor strives to support the community so
this partnership made perfect sense according to Executive Vice
President Scott Felsenthal: "Being able to create products to support
St. Jude Children's Hospital is something that we are extremely excited
about. Partnering with such an incredible organization that doesn't
require a child or their family to pay a penny for treatment and housing
is a reminder that all of us at Whitmor have a purpose in helping not
only consumers in their everyday lives by providing them with products
to keep them organized, but a purpose in helping the community in which
we live and making the world a better place for those that are dealing
with life-threatening illnesses."
The
non-profit organization is based just minutes from Whitmor’s Southaven,
Mississippi office so they witness their incredible, inspiring efforts
day and night. St. Jude’s works tirelessly to be sure no family ever
receives a bill for treatment, travel, housing or food. This is possible
ONLY through donations and contributions from businesses that support
those kids.
Fred's,
Inc., who is also Memphis-based and a long-time partner of Whitmor,
will be the first retailer to offer a selection of the St. Jude items.
Fred’s will carry three of the five available items in all 659 stores
starting Sunday, September 17th.
- ironing board cover
- cotton laundry bag
- collapsible hamper
