Upbound Group

Our 2024 Olympic-inspired “Winning Together to Fight Hunger” campaign conducted by our Field Support Center (FSC) coworkers in Plano, Texas, resulted in Upbound Group’s largest-ever annual donation to the North Texas Food Bank (NTFB)! Donations raised through creative in-office fundraiser events and our 10th Annual Golf Tournament (as well as a matching company gift) resulted in an overall donation of more than $222,000 to the NTFB! Thank you to our FSC team for supporting hunger relief in our community! #RACcares #NorthTexasFoodBank Anthony Blasquez Sudeep Gautam

Each fall, our Rent-A-Center, Get It Now Stores and Home Choice Stores coworkers help fight hunger locally by collecting monetary donations toward our annual “Fill the Fridge” campaign; all proceeds go to food banks in the areas where our stores operate. We’re proud to share that this year, Fill the Fridge raised more than $75,000 in support of hunger relief. Congratulations to our three store teams in Williston, N.D., Pontiac, Mich., and Blaine, Minn., who raised the most money in their divisions — and thank you to everyone who helped support the campaign!
