Win 20 colorful Rico Stack Student Chairs for a brand new classroom

HOLLY SPRINGS, N.C. — OFM, a leading office and school furniture manufacturer, distributor, and wholesaler, announced today it is kicking off a brand new back-to-school giveaway aimed at teachers and other educational staffers. The winner will receive 20 colorful Rico Student Stack Chairs to start the 2014/2015 academic year off with a new classroom.

“It’s the middle of summer and for a lot of teachers and other educational faculty that means time to start thinking about seating arrangements for the new school year,” added Blake Zalcberg, chief executive officer of OFM. “We think 20 new Rico chairs will help create a dream classroom that is bright, fun, and functional.”

Contestants can enter to win the “Sit Down and Learn Giveaway” simply by liking OFM's Facebook page and sending an email to [email protected] with "learn” in the subject line along with a one-word description of the chairs their students currently use, for instance dirty, old, broken, worn, uncomfortable, etc. The deadline to enter is 11:59 p.m. EST, August 15, 2014. The winner will be selected through a random drawing on August 18, 2014 and notified by email on that day.

The Rico Student Stack Chairs cost $116-$153 each giving the total value of the giveaway prize at over $2,300. The winner can choose from six different colors and 12, 14, or 16 inch chair heights to ensure the Rico chairs fit perfectly in their classroom or other educational setting. And what makes these chairs great for schools is that they are Greenguard certified and have low chemical emissions.
