Tru Plumbing and Gas Launches Monthly Giving Program with $1,500 Donation to A Bed 4 Me Foundation

Tru Plumbing and Gas has launched its Making Waves charitable giving program with a $1,500 donation to A Bed 4 Me Foundation. The monthly initiative directs $10 from every completed service call to selected local nonprofits, creating a sustainable model for corporate philanthropy tied directly to business operations.

In July, the program's first month, the company completed 150 plumbing service calls, generating the inaugural donation. This approach represents a shift from traditional one-time corporate donations to a consistent funding stream that grows with business performance. The program demonstrates how service-based businesses can integrate social responsibility into their core operations while supporting community organizations.

Cody Kearns, CEO of Tru Plumbing and Gas, emphasized the personal connection to the first beneficiary organization. The company selected A Bed 4 Me Foundation for the program's launch due to its mission of providing beds to children in need throughout Okaloosa and Walton counties.

Diane Freeman, Executive Director of A Bed 4 Me Foundation, noted the significant impact this support will have on local families. The organization addresses a critical need by providing bedding kits at no cost to qualified families, having encountered children sleeping on floors, couches, or sharing beds with multiple family members.

The program's structure ensures that charitable giving scales with business success, creating a sustainable partnership model between for-profit companies and nonprofit organizations. This approach provides predictable funding for nonprofits while allowing businesses to demonstrate their commitment to community welfare through ongoing operations rather than occasional donations.

The success of the Making Waves program in its first month suggests substantial potential for community impact as Tru Plumbing and Gas continues its service operations. This model could serve as a template for other service-based businesses seeking to incorporate meaningful social responsibility into their business models while supporting local charitable organizations.
