Nothing second-hand about giving…DirectBuy of Tinley Park donates computers to Goodwill; furniture to Catholic Charities.

TINLEY PARK, IL…

Over the years, DirectBuy has been recognized for giving families the opportunity to buy directly from the manufacturer and save hundreds, even thousands, on home improvement projects, furniture, appliance and many other household items. DirectBuy has also earned a reputation for its generosity in the communities they serve. A fine example of that is DirectBuy of Tinley Park for its recent donation to Catholic Charities and Goodwill.

DirectBuy of Tinley Park donated 12 computers, complete with keyboard and monitors, to Goodwill, located in Orland Park, Illinois. In addition, they also donated several brand new pieces of furniture and appliances to Catholic Charities, including a washing machine, twin bedroom set and living room fireplace.

“We’ve been supporters of Catholic Charities and Goodwill for a long time now. Yet with these difficult economic times we’re currently in, we wanted to do a little more this year, something that went beyond writing a check. By contributing furniture and appliances to Catholic Charities and the computers to Goodwill, we’re providing items that we know will be put to good use,” said I.J. Sell, owner of DirectBuy of Tinley Park.

That type of generosity is fairly standard for DirectBuy. Showroom owners nationwide donate to any number of organizations, and have shown a particular affinity for making contributions to children/family-oriented organizations like Boys & Girls Club, YMCA and children’s hospitals.

Since 1971, DirectBuy franchises have offered members the opportunity to enjoy enormous savings on home furnishings, home improvement items, entertainment and outdoor products and accessories by buying wholesale, directly from the manufacturer. With five convenient locations in the greater Chicago area (Chicago, Gurnee, Hoffman Estates, Naperville, and Tinley Park), consumers can enjoy a comfortable, country-club setting, where they finally have the financial control of buying direct.

For more information on a DirectBuy membership, you can call 1-800-DIRECTBUY or visit http://www.directbuychicago.com/.
