DirectBuy of Calgary Offering Free Three-Month Memberships to Area Flood Victims

(July 1, 2013) Calgary, AB — DirectBuy’s corporate headquarters and the owners of locally owned and operated DirectBuy of Calgary announced today the company’s efforts to assist communities affected by the recent flood damage in Calgary, Alberta through a special relief package.

“We are pleased to partner with and support the efforts of our DirectBuy of Calgary showroom to assist the families in their community who have suffered losses in their homes due to the recent flooding,” said DirectBuy CEO Mike Bornhorst. “We are committed to helping through a special relief offer that will help enable families to rebuild, restore, and repair what they have lost.”

DirectBuy of Calgary is offering free three-month memberships to families affected by the flooding. Memberships will allow them to purchase almost anything they need for their homes directly from manufacturers and their authorized suppliers. DirectBuy has experience helping families recover from natural disasters, having worked earlier this year to help victims of Hurricane Sandy on the East Coast of the United States with a similar relief package.

“DirectBuy is committed to helping those living in the communities in and around Calgary,” said Teresa Shock, owner of DirectBuy of Calgary. “We’re confident that area families will quickly benefit from the relief package we put together and look forward to working with the community to restore all that we have lost.”

DirectBuy enables consumers to purchase brand-name merchandise – including kitchen cabinets, appliances, flooring, home furnishings, and much more –at members-only, manufacturer-direct prices. By providing merchandise without traditional retail markup, DirectBuy dramatically increases the purchasing power of its members, enabling them to enjoy great value when furnishing and remodeling their homes.

“Many of our friends, families, employees, and members are dealing with damage from the flood at this time, and we are working hard to find ways we can help,” said Shock. “We want everyone affected by the flooding to know that you’ve got friends here at your local DirectBuy who have experience helping families recover from natural disasters, and we’re ready to help you.”
