Madeira Supports Paws with a Cause

February 03, 2012

Madeira USA, Laconia, N.H., will contribute a portion of the sale of each Madeira Thread Can filled with six cones of Classic Rayon #40 or 100% polyester Polyneon #40 to Paws With A Cause throughout the first months of 2012.

Customers can choose between eco-friendly Classic Rayon or bleachable Polyneon — in six different colors or all the same color — depending on their embroidery needs. Each cone contains 5,500 yards of thread. Cones are delivered in a clear-sided storage can, and a portion of each sale is donated to the non-profit organization Paws with a Cause. Larger quantities of thread at a discounted price are available for higher volume embroiderers.

“Madeira is no stranger to recognizing a need for help and responding,” says Hajo Voeller, president and CEO, Madeira USA. “In Germany, where Madeira thread is manufactured, regular corporate donations are made to charities that support cancer research, support for children in other nations who work in the apparel industry and families of quarry workers. Throughout the year, Madeira USA will choose a variety of charitable, non-profit organizations that support the interests of our customers.”

Paws With A Cause is dedicated to serving people with disabilities by training and placing assistance dogs, such as service dogs for people with physical disabilities, hearing dogs for people who are hard of hearing or deaf, seizure response dogs for people with seizure disorders and service dogs for children with autism. The organization offers lifetime support once the service dog is paired with its owner.
