Ronald McDonald House Receives Furniture Donation From Furniture Row

(CSRwire) DENVER, CO - Feb. 20 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ - On Monday, February 18th, Aurora's new Ronald McDonald House received one of their finishing touches -- furniture. The Furniture Row Companies provided over 45 rooms full of furniture and mattresses for this new "Home Away from Home."

This new Ronald McDonald House will provide temporary lodging for families of seriously ill or injured children. Located in a brand new facility one mile from The Children's Hospital, Fitzsimons Medical Campus and close to the Medical Centers of Aurora, the new House will be in excess of 67,000 square feet, almost doubling the capacity from the first Ronald McDonald House in Denver. A public grand opening event has been scheduled for Saturday, February 23rd from 2-4 pm at 932 Potomac Circle in Aurora.

"In donating furniture for the entire Ronald McDonald House in Aurora, we're simply trying to support its efforts to keep families together while their children receive medical care at area hospitals," said Bill McKendry, Marketing Director for Furniture Row Companies. "And our hope is that, this new facility will become a Home Away from Home."

Pam Whitaker, Executive Director for The Ronald McDonald House Charities of Denver, Inc. says, "I know that Furniture Row has turned our dream into a reality and made this 'house' a remarkable home ... everything is warm, cozy, inviting, relaxing and will make our families feel so special."

The Furniture Row Companies are family-owned furniture retailers and manufacturers headquartered in Denver. With over 3000 employees, Sofa Mart, Oak Express, Bedroom Expressions and Denver Mattress Company which all operate under the Furniture Row brand, have become one of America's largest and fastest growing furniture companies with over 330 stores in 30 states.
