COLORADO SPRINGS, COLORADO, November 16, 2015 -- The Denver Mattress Company (DMC) and the Association of Gospel Rescue Missions (AGRM) are pleased to announce the 13th anniversary of their annual charity partnership as together they continue to help those in need during the holidays.
DMC will match every dollar that is donated to one of the 70 missions across more than 35 states from November 1-30. Individual missions will be able to receive up to $2,500 from DMC per market to help support their efforts in assisting people in need. DMC's total matching donation is capped at $150,000. Local missions will be able to use the donations for the specific needs of their own community for necessities such as food, warm clothing, shelter, or assistance.
DMC supports donation efforts with an online media campaign using website banner ads, campaign landing pages designed to receive donations for each unique rescue mission, and local promotion by AGRM members. Last year's efforts yielded more than $160,000 in local community support, which was matched to the full $150,000 by DMC.
