About us

inspired by first responders for first responders

Through Thank You Heroes, first responders, health care workers and their families can access warehouse direct pricing and savings of up to 60% off select home decor and furniture.

Our Story

My personal heroes in my life were my inspiration in creating the Thank You Heroes Program.

My nephew and his girlfriend are both police officers. My daughter Katherine works in nursing and my daughter Madison is currently continuing her education in health care.

I could not be more proud of their chosen career paths.

Thank You Heroes started as a passion project in 2019 for friends and family. When the pandemic started and the world started to change, I knew that the time was right to launch a Canada-wide program.

Today we have just shy of 5,000 heroes in our Private Facebook Group and we continue to bring more wonderful first responders into our program every month.

We believe you deserve a beautiful, warm and welcoming space to come home to. 

First responders and health care workers sacrifice long hours and holidays away from their families to serve and protect our communities.

Through my 30 years of experience in the furniture industry, I have brought together my top vendors to get you access to stylish home decor at deep discounts. Our mission is to help you make your home a sanctuary!

Thank You Heroes is thrilled to be able to achieve our goal of a yearly donation of $5000 to the Burn Fund in Vancouver.

It was a privilege to spend time yesterday at the Burn Fund which is a home away from home for families who have a child or family member undergoing treatment due to burn or major trauma injuries. A heartfelt thank you to Gord Ditchburn – President BC Professional Fire Fighters’ Association and Al Gregory – Battalion Chief Vancouver Fire and Rescue Services for taking the time to meet with me. I am humbled to participate and support this organization as I learn more about the brave men and women firefighters who daily put their lives on the line for us. You can learn more about the Burn Fund here https://burnfund.org Thank you to all our heroes, we are so grateful for all you do! ❤️

Thank You Heroes and Stylus Sofas combined forces to donate over $13,000 worth of furniture and bedding to the Honour House Society!

Their newest addition, Honour Ranch in Ashcroft was in need of some merchandise to complete their vision and we jumped at the opportunity to help the amazing organization.

Honour House is a refuge, a “home away from home” for members of our Canadian Armed Forces, Veterans, Emergency Services Personnel and their families to stay, completely free of charge, while they are receiving medical care and treatment in the Metro Vancouver area.
These brave individuals, along with their families, sacrifice so much on a daily basis to protect our freedom and our everyday way of life. Honour House allows them the opportunity to show that we care and how much we appreciate all that they do for us.

I have a very happy heart today and feel blessed to be able to be part of such an exceptional organization as Honour House. ❤️❤️❤️

We are proud to donate to the Burn Fund

We just had our sectional (with sofa bed) delivered and cannot thank Sandra enough for all her help with this!
Our last transfer was such a big change and we had to downsize all our furniture which was not the easiest with everything going on but she helped us find this gorgeous sofa that was the perfect size for our space and was incredible to deal with.
Don’t mind the ugly carpet😩 we’re doing Reno’s yet again…
Thank you Sandra! You’re amazing! ❤️❤️

We love our new sectional💜

Suzanne

I recently ordered with Sandra and love all my furniture that came in! She helped organize getting it shipped to Vancouver Island for me and all the pieces are stunning, very high quality and sturdy! With 2 people the pieces were easy to assemble with just a basic screwdriver at home too. I’m sure they’ll last a long time!

Thanks Sandy!

I bought king-size sheets for myself and a set of full size sheets for my daughter. We both love them, super comfy, great product, 5⭐️’s all around.
Al

I give 5 stars for my Hush mattress and pillow! The mattress is supportive yet so comfortable, best of both worlds! I recommend Hush to anyone I know who is looking for a new mattress. I also have the mattress protector which compliments the mattress nicely. The cooling sheets are next on my wish list!

KATIE

I purchased a set of Hush sheets and two pillows and they're great! I give this product 5 stars!

You were right about the Hush mattress being super comfortable (their sheets are the best ones I've ever owned). Thank you for making the process so easy, your customer service is top notch, as is Hush's. Would definitely order through you and the other companies - thank you for recognizing First Responders!"

Thank you Sandra!
We love our LH Imports Reclaimed Wood Table. The finish is lovely and the rustic look is exactly what we were going for. We decided to leave it extended because it fits our space perfectly. There's something special about reclaimed wood❤
DARLENE

Thank you Sandra, we're absolutely thrilled with our new sofa & storage ottoman! Living in a small space has its challenges but this design with the chaise lounge worked perfectly to add separation yet retain the openness we needed. The material is soft and cozy, the ottoman is beautifully made & holds a lot of blankets & games.

Sandra Kern, you are all sorts of AMAZING Just moved into a new house with nothing but the floor or a folding chair to sit on...but now, I have this beautiful Stylus sectional all thanks to you.

Thank-you Sandra for facilitating the purchase of these two beauties. Without your generosity this would not have happened. (The Peanut Gallery is clearly protesting not being allowed to test drive these super cushy Canadian made beauties )

Once again, thank you!
