MARCH 2009
Thursday, March 5 - Furniture Factory Warehouse Surprises a Deserving War Hero with a Generous Gift, San Antonio,Texas.
Thanks to Coalition to Salute America’s Heroes, FFW, Salvador Ramirez and his family will be able to pick out whatever they want from the Furniture Factory Warehouse this Thursday. They can shop up to 1,000 dollars in new furniture. Knowing first-hand the stress that active duty puts on a person and his or her family, Fernando Aguilar—the director of sales for Furniture Factory Warehouse and a military veteran—went to the management team of Furniture Factory Warehouse and asked if his company could make this donation of furniture to help ease that stress. This is the third room full of furniture they have given in San Antonio to a deserving war hero. The management team at Furniture Factory Warehouse has a history of giving back to the community.
