Leeder Furniture — Makes residence life feel like home.
What started as a career-saver for our founder, quickly turned into a mission to make residence life feel like home. We remember the days of dorm life. Saggy spring beds creaking with every movement. Dressers bolted to the wall, though they were too ugly for anyone to want to steal. Maybe they were bolted down to be kept from being thrown out the window to improve the aesthetic of the room. Drafty windows allowing too much of the outside weather into our rooms.
Now in our second decade, Leeder Furniture is growing rapidly and has become one of the leaders in residence furniture.
Leeder Furniture says, NO MORE, to residence life furniture that looks and feels institutional. We exist to make residence life feel more like home. It’s hard enough being away from your own bed – whether at college, a camp, or in a shelter, the furniture shouldn’t make it even harder. Leeder Furniture makes residence life easy and supports the mission of the organizations we partner with.
What sets us apart? In a word, YES. Making residence life feel more like home means saying “yes” to special requests. Saying “yes” to custom colors or logos. Saying “yes” to developing products that meet the specific needs identified by our partner customers. Off-the-shelf solutions only go so far. Saying “yes” gets a home away from home to feel like home. What can we say “yes” to for you?
Gratitude leads us to do business differently. This poem helps express our thoughts.
Drinking From The Saucer
I've never made a fortune, And I'll never make one now
But it really doesn't matter 'Cause I'm happy anyhow
As I go along my journey I'm reaping better than I've sowed
I'm drinking from the saucer 'Cause my cup has overflowed
I don't have a lot of riches, And sometimes the going's tough
But with kin and friends to love me I think I'm rich enough
I thank God for the blessings That His mercy has bestowed
I'm drinking from the saucer 'Cause my cup has overflowed
He gives me strength and courage When the way grows steep and rough
I'll not ask for other blessings for I'm already blessed enough
May we never be too busy To help bear another's load
Then we'll all be drinking from the saucer When our cups have overflowed
— John Paul Moore
