Comfi Dreams Big With Live Well, Build Well Sponsorship
At Comfi, our company ethos is “Dream Big” with one of the parts of our business dedicated to ensuring good sleep is accessible to everyone. For every 5 beds we sell, we donate a brand new mattress to a Kiwi family in need. Giving back to our community is integral to who we are as a company.
When we were approached by Rob Waddell from the Waddell Foundation to take part in the Live Well, Build Well sponsorship, we said absolutely yes. Live Well, Build Well was established in 2022 and offers a programme designed to grow mental wellbeing and resilience for tradies in the residential construction industry. This programme has since helped tens-of-thousands of workers increase their mental fitness and implement effective strategies to prevent issues like depression and anxiety.
To raise funds for an excellent cause, Unit2Go have donated a brand new 55 square-metre transportable unit comprising two bedrooms, an office, a bathroom, kitchen and lounge. What’s more, with the help of other suppliers, this unit will be sold fully furnished. Comfi have donated a beautiful Queen Super Natural mattress and base as well as a Natural single and base.
Live Well, Build Well Programme Manager Rafael Caso says they’ve teamed up with Unit2go on this project to provide the organisation with some much-needed cash. “This funding is going to be huge for us. The work we’re doing is really important and this will allow us to help far more people.” Caso Points out that tradies are often in the line of fire when it comes to mental health hurdles. “Tradies typically work really hard in an industry that has ups and downs so they can be dealing with a lot of uncertainty,” said Caso.
Naturally, one of the biggest contributors towards mental unfitness is poor sleep so it made perfect sense for us here at Comfi to step up and help out such a worthy cause. We also learnt a thing or two about those in the construction industry as for many, they work either on their own and/or in isolated areas.
