Comfy Sacks Teams Up with Rupert Boneham to Help Kids
If you’re one of the more than 38 million people who voted for Rupert Boneham on “Survivor: All Stars,” helping him win $1 million, you probably already know what a great, charismatic and generous guy he is. But what you may not know is that he used most of his winnings to start a charity, “Rupert’s Kids,” which empowers young people to find their inner strength, self worth and value to society.
Comfy Sacks, a maker of premium bean bag furniture, believes in the mission of Rupert’s Kids to provide mentoring and educational programming to youth as well as developing housing options for low-income families and facilitating community partnerships to help disadvantaged people of all ages.
“We fell in love with Rupert when we saw him on ‘Survivor,’ but we liked him even more when we found out about all he has done and continues to do to help kids,” said Tyler Shearburn, founder of Comfy Sacks. “We jumped at the chance to help. But instead of just making a donation, we wanted to develop a product that would reflect Rupert’s larger-than-life personality and generosity.”
The Rupert Edition Comfy Sacks are covered with super-soft tie-dyed fleece and range in size from 3.5 feet round to the massive eight-foot Comfy Sack, fit for a crowd. Comfy Sacks will donate $25 from the sale of each Rupert Edition Comfy Sack to his charity.
“Rupert loved the Comfy Sack so much he asked for an eight-foot model for his office in
Indianapolis,” Shearburn said. “He uses it every day when he’s not on the road sharing the good work of Rupert’s Kids.”
Comfy Sacks are not your mama’s bean bag furniture. Made with high-quality, furniture-grade foam, they are incredibly soft and comfortable, supporting your body without being stiff. The foam has incredibly memory and does not flatten or make noise like the traditional foam used in bean bags. ComfySacks are perfect for lounging, watching movies, playing video games, reading, even comforting autistic children. Learn more at http://www.ComfySacks.com.
Comfy Sacks was founded about four years ago when Shearburn was looking for the most comfortable seating possible for watching movies and playing video games. Unable to find what he was looking for, he developed Comfy Sacks as an extremely comfortable and reasonably priced alternative to couches and chairs.
