Denver Mattress partnership providing safe drinking water

Customers purchasing a new mattress from Denver Mattress are getting more than a great night’s sleep — they’re helping provide lifesaving clean water to children and families around the globe through a unique partnership with World Vision.

As of January 2015, for every mattress purchased at one of their 100 retail stores or on their website, Denver Mattress is providing one person with clean water for one year.

For more than 30 years, Furniture Row founder Barney Visser and his family have partnered with us in support of humanitarian efforts both here and abroad.

“We are grateful for the generosity of Denver Mattress and the patronage of its customers. Together, we will bring hope as well as clean water to many children and families.”
—Dr. Greg Allgood, World Vision

Sadly, each day some 1,600 children under age 5 die from causes related to contaminated water, poor sanitation, and inadequate hygiene. By specifically targeting these critical areas, we are providing access to clean water to one new person every 30 seconds, making us the world’s largest nongovernmental provider of clean water.

“Clean water can be the difference between life and death for many children,” says Dr. Greg Allgood, vice president for World Vision Water. “We are grateful for the generosity of Denver Mattress and the patronage of its customers. Together, we will bring hope as well as clean water to many children and families.”

“Here at Denver Mattress, we believe that a better tomorrow starts tonight,” said Dan Visser, president of Denver Mattress Co. “We’re excited that the clean water provided through this program will ensure better tomorrows for so many children, families, and communities.”
