GIVING BACK TO THE COMMUNITY
A core mission behind Hero
At Hero Flooring, we believe that as our company grows and prospers, we can use our resources to help make a difference in our community. One of the main reasons behind the name “HERO” was the idea of extending a hand out to those in need. Therefore, we will continue to look for causes that align with our values and try to make an impact.
“We chose Together We Rise to support, quite frankly, because this is a personal matter to my family and me. Having adopted my son at birth, I learned a great deal about both adoption and the foster care systems. Every child should live feeling loved, feeling safe, and doing so with dingily. Hero Flooring is committed to playing a part - even if it is a small part, in fact, in bringing a smile to a child who needs it and reminding them that they are loved, they have a future, they matter, and that they have the support of all of us near and far.”
Our Very first Partnership
Every single day, the Together We Rise organization helps over 250 kids in foster care nationwide. Hero Flooring is proud to help bring love, smiles, and a sense of dignity to the children in our foster care system. Hero Flooring has joined Together We Rise to supply and deliver to local foster Agencies the Together We Rise – Sweet Cases. These duffle bags replace the garbage bags that foster children often are given for their belongings when they move between foster homes. Sweet Cases are filled with a teddy bear, a fleece blanket, hygiene kits, coloring books, and crayons.
