CushionSource.com Donates Custom-Made Bench Cushions to Nationally-Syndicated NBC Design Show

Online, November 8, 2010 (Newswire.com) - "George to the Rescue," a nationally-syndicated design show, recently enlisted Cushion Source (www.CushionSource.com), a web-based retail site which offers customers convenient and easy online options to order custom-sized cushions, throw pillows, drapes and more in over 1,000 fabric choices, to provide bench cushions for a Brewster, N.Y., family in need of help with updating their kitchen.

Roseann and Joe Martorell have dreamt of a new kitchen ever since they moved into their house 15 years ago. However, Roseann's cancer diagnosis and college expenses for their kids have prevented the stay at home mom and her husband, a decorated firefighter, from sprucing up the space.

"Everyone at Cushion Source was more than willing to provide their time and talents to assist the Martorell family with this special project," said Scott McGlon, president of Online Commerce Group the parent company of Cushion Source.

"For a show like 'George to the Rescue' to rely on our expertise related to custom-made cushions is a testament to the quality products we offer." Cushion Source was contacted by celebrity designer and TV personality Courtney Cachet to provide the bench cushions for the kitchen. Cachet was responsible for redecorating the Martorell's bedroom.

"Taking part in this makeover for the Martorell family was such an honor," Cachet said. "They are a very deserving family and I wanted to make sure we used quality products throughout the house. Cushion Source was amazing to work with. They brought us great product and excellent service in a timely manner. I couldn't have asked for more."

The show's host and home improvement expert, George Oliphant, surprised the Martorell family by taking on the project with Bruce Woolf of Quaker Road Associates, a home remodeling firm based in Chappaqua, N.Y. Seventeen companies, including Cushion Source, contributed services and products for this episode of "George to the Rescue."

The show features Oliphant's visits to local communities across America bringing hope to deserving families and tackling home renovation projects and airs during the weekend on 10 NBC Local Media Stations, which serve approximately one-third of the U.S. population.
