Home for the Holidays 2005 : ST. LOUIS, Nov. 15, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- Aaron Rents, Inc. (NYSE:RNT), the nation's leader in the rental, sales and lease ownership, specialty retailing and rental of residential and office furniture, consumer electronics, home appliances and accessories, today announced the first of several furniture donations made in conjunction with Homes for the Holidays, a charitable program founded by NFL player Warrick Dunn that provides deserving single mothers with a completely furnished home. At today's event, St. Louis Wide Receiver Torry Holt stunned the hard-working mother of four by having her home completely furnished, accessorized and stocked with everything her family needs, just in time for the Thanksgiving holiday. ADVERTISEMENT According to President Ken Butler, "Aaron's is so thrilled to partner with generous NFL players like Torry Holt who go out of their way to give back to their communities. Aaron's is proud to be a major sponsor of the Homes for the Holidays charitable program. Like our slogan says, we are ready to make even more 'Dreams Come True' this holiday season." The family who received today's donation of furniture had just taken possession on their four-bedroom home through Habitat for Humanity St. Louis, after completing 450 hours of sweat equity with that charitable program. However, the deserving family had no idea they were selected to receive brand-new furnishings, appliances and electronics through Homes for the Holidays.
