The Container Store Launches Annual Holiday Hugs Program in Partnership with Children’s Hospitals Nationwide

Retailer Accepting New, Unwrapped Gifts for Young Hospital Patients

COPPELL, Texas–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The Container Store (NYSE:TCS) announces the continuation of its annual,
nationwide signature giving program, Holiday Hugs. The retailer is
partnering with children’s hospitals across the country to collect and
deliver new, unwrapped gifts to young patients who are spending the
holidays away from home.


Customers can participate in the Holiday Hugs program by dropping off
new, unwrapped books, small toys and games, toiletries, gift cards and
kid-friendly stocking stuffers in collection bins at the retailer’s 84
stores nationwide between now and December 18th. Employees
from each store will then volunteer their time to package the donated
gifts into custom Holiday Hugs Sacks and deliver them to their partner
hospital the week of December 19th. The retailer will also
host a collection drive at their Home Office and Distribution Center in
Coppell, Texas.

“Every holiday season, The Container Store embraces the spirit of giving
by helping those in need in our local communities,” said Melissa Reiff,
Chief Executive Officer of The Container Store. “Imagine how
difficult it would be if your child, or a child in your life, had to
spend the holiday season in the hospital. Our Holiday Hugs program is an
easy way to bring joy to these young patients and their families through
this gesture of love from everyone associated with The Container Store.”
