What is Walker's Cares?
Walkers Cares is a charitable initiative by Walker's Furniture, focused on making a meaningful difference in our communities. Through this program, a portion of proceeds from every mattress sale is donated directly to local charities, with each store selecting a charity to support each giving year. In addition to our mattress proceed donations, we proudly contribute to a variety of community programs, extending our support to those most in need. At Walker's Furniture, giving back isn’t just a commitment – it’s woven into the fabric of who we are, because caring for our neighbors is at the heart of everything we do.
The true credit for this giving belongs not to us, but to you, our valued customer.
When you choose to shop with us, you're doing far more than making a purchase – you're making a lasting impact in the lives of those in need. Your support is what drives real change, transforming lives and bringing hope to our communities. We’re honored to be part of that difference, made possible by you.
TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
Charity of the Week
Every week, we shine a spotlight on charities close to our hearts. Their remarkable work in our communities has touched countless lives, and we're committed to supporting their mission. Throughout the year, a portion of every mattress purchase made with us will be donated to these incredible organizations. Join us in making a difference –together, we can create meaningful change one week at a time.

Monetary donations are the most flexible, allowing charities to allocate funds where they're needed most, whether for emergency relief, operational costs, or ongoing programs. Goods and in-kind donations—such as food, clothing, or medical supplies—help meet immediate, tangible needs.
Volunteer
