(VIDEO) Mattress Mack defends Houston

As always, Mattress Mack is stepping up for Houston! The very morning Hurricane Beryl made landfall last week, he opened his Gallery Furniture showroom as a shelter. Gallery Furniture functioned as a cooling center and provided breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Mack estimates that about 15,000 people have come into his shelter in the past week! He says it’s the right thing to do!

MATTRESS MACK CALLS CENTERPOINT:

A video started going viral yesterday in which Mattress Mack criticizes Centerpoint for its handling of the power outages after Hurricane Beryl. He calls the company “Centerpointless” and says it should be “ashamed” of itself for putting “profit over people.” Watch the video below. Thanks, Mack, for standing up for Houston.

JIM IS ALWAYS UP TO THE TIME:

If you remember Hurricane Harvey, Mattress Mack turned his furniture stores into shelters for Hurricane Harvey victims, providing them with food and water. He also sent his company’s moving trucks to help and rescue about 200 people. McIngvale has become a well-known figure in the city, making a habit of donating to charitable causes and opening his furniture stores as shelters.

During Hurricane Katrina in 2005, McIngvale opened two of his stores to 200 people who had fled New Orleans seeking shelter.

Mattress Mack is well known for giving back throughout the year. In addition to donating to several charities throughout the year. They host an annual Christmas contest and do many other things in the Houston community.

Mattress Mack has a big wallet and a big heart to match and that’s why we love Mattress Mack!
