Softmart Spreads Holiday Cheer through Charity

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 10, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- This holiday season, Softmart's Goodwill Committee is dedicated to bringing charitable cheer throughout communities in Pennsylvania and New Jersey.

Over the course of one month, Softmart employees at Headquarters in Downingtown, PA and the Tinton Falls, NJ location collected 400 lbs of non-perishable goods for the FoodBank of Monmouth and Ocean counties. In this particular region, nearly 1 out of every 10 people struggle with hunger. Softmart is happy to supply the essentials to feed these counties in northern New Jersey this winter.  

In addition, Softmart focused efforts towards a local family in Pennsylvania. The family of five children recently lost their mother to cancer. With the medical bills still piling up, the family has struggled to make ends meet this year. Softmart's employees are excited to provide the entire family with Christmas gifts. These gifts will put smiles on the children's faces, as well as give the father a little less to worry about this season.

The Goodwill Committee at Softmart has also chosen to participate in Holiday Giving at the VA Hospital in Coatesville, PA. These efforts target two different groups of permanent residents at the hospital: elderly veterans and hospice patients, and service members with severe mental and emotional damage. The men and women in these two patient groups have served our country as far back as WWII and up to the current day. Softmart employees are donating specific clothing items and toiletries such as winter wear and shaving supplies. The company is proud to provide whatever is needed for these brave individuals who have given up so much for our freedom.

Softmart and their Goodwill Committee hope that their commitment to the community will inspire all employees to give back. Company-wide feelings of generosity and gratitude have made the year-end at Softmart special.
