EL MONTE, Calif., Feb. 03, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — GigaCloud Technology Inc (Nasdaq: GCT) <\/strong>(\u201cGigaCloud\u201d or the \u201cCompany\u201d), a pioneer of global end-to-end B2B ecommerce technology solutions for large parcel merchandise, today announced it is donating more than $1 million in home furnishings to Habitat for Humanity Greater Los Angeles to support the ReBUILD LA\u2122 Wildfire Recovery campaign. The donation will directly benefit families who have lost their homes, helping them rebuild their lives with dignity and comfort.<\/p>\n

\u201cLos Angeles is our home, and when people in our community lose their homes in disasters like wildfires, it impacts all of us,\u201d said Larry Wu, Founder, Chairman, and Chief Executive Officer. \u201cWe are committed to doing everything in our power to help families rebuild their lives with dignity and comfort. Through our donation of over $1 million worth of furniture to Habitat for Humanity Greater Los Angeles, we aim to provide essential home furnishings and restore a sense of normalcy for those who have lost so much. GigaCloud stands with our community\u2014as neighbors and as a company that cares.\u201d<\/p>\n

GigaCloud\u2019s donation includes nearly 90 SKUs totaling over 5,000 items, featuring a diverse range of indoor living furniture such as beds, mattresses, sofas, and chairs. The contribution also includes a significant number of ottomans and dressers, ensuring a wide variety of pieces to enhance functionality.<\/p>\n

Recognizing that mattresses were among the most urgently needed items and that they were not in stock at the time, the Company took action by reaching out to Restonic\u2014a leading mattress supplier and recently onboarded GigaCloud B2B Marketplace seller\u2014to purchase $150,000 worth of mattresses specifically for donation.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen GigaCloud reached out to us about the urgent need for mattresses among those impacted by the wildfire, their dedication to truly helping the community was evident,\u201d said Laurie Tokarz, President of Restonic. \u201cInstead of simply donating what was available, they made it a priority to source exactly what families needed most. At Restonic, providing comfort and support is at the heart of what we do, and we are honored to partner with GigaCloud and Habitat for Humanity Greater Los Angeles to help families rebuild their homes and lives.\u201d<\/p>\n

GigaCloud\u2019s deep ties to the Los Angeles community extend beyond this initiative. Under the leadership of Wu, who was recognized as an Entrepreneur Of The Year\u00ae 2024 Greater Los Angeles Award winner by Ernst & Young LLP in 2024, the Company has consistently supported local causes, including ongoing donations to City of Hope and other community initiatives.<\/p>\n

The ReBUILD LA\u2122 Wildfire Recovery campaign was created to support uninsured, underinsured, and low-income families impacted by wildfires. The campaign focuses on providing assistance with rebuilding and relocation to ensure families have safe and stable housing. Additionally, it offers essential home furnishings and supplies to help create new living spaces, as well as temporary rental and mortgage assistance for families whose homes are uninhabitable.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are incredibly grateful to GigaCloud Technology for their generosity and shared commitment to rebuilding lives and restoring hope,\u201d said Erin Rank, president and CEO of Habitat for Humanity Greater Los Angeles. \u201cTheir donation will provide families with essential home furnishings as they begin anew after the devastation of wildfires.\u201d<\/p>\n
