With passion and compassion, Sonsray is at the
forefront of the business world and community services.
Sonsray is a growing company constantly shaking the boat and
pushing the industry forward rather than just accepting how things
are done and following others. Sonsray is more than just a
business; it's a family that values people and community. Founder
and CEO Matthew Hoelscher believes companies are responsible for
giving back, so he started the Force for Good initiative.

One of the core values at Sonsray is People, and the Force for
Good initiative embodies that. It encourages employees to take paid
days off to volunteer with charity organizations of their choice
and positively impact their community. Matthew Hoelscher's
first-hand experience helping people build their homes while
volunteering at Tiny Homes organization gave him an unforgettable
experience that he wants to pay forward.
In 2023, Sonsray employees had an exciting experience as nearly
100 of them participated in the Torrance Beach cleanup by going out
to the beach and picking up trash. Matthew Hoelscher felt good
about the employees' connection with the community. Sonsray has
chosen to make this an annual event and their next company-wide
beach cleanup will take place at the end of August at the Long
Beach City Beach.
“To see our Sonsray community working
together, creating those bonds of connection both with each other
and with the local community who appreciated what we were doing,
well, that's something pretty great.”
- Matthew Hoelscher Founder
& CEO of Sonsray
Sonsray's commitment to being a Force For Good in their
community knows no bounds. A group of employees from their Las
Vegas store supported a local non-profit organization called
Opportunity Village.
Opportunity Village serves individuals in the Southern Nevada
community with intellectual disabilities with a mission to enhance
their lives, promote independence, and help them achieve their full
potential. The organization hosts an annual event, The Magical
Forest, to raise funds for their programs and services.
Last year marked the 31st season of The Magical Forest, the Las
Vegas team was eager to lend their support. They sponsored a tree
and spent hours decorating it with beautiful ornaments that
reflected the event's spirit.
Sonsray's partnership with Opportunity Village attests to their
belief that a community thrives when all its members are empowered
to succeed. They are proud to have been an event sponsor and to
have contributed to the success of such a worthy cause.
Last year, Sonsray hosted their annual NorCal and SoCal golf
tournaments where all of the proceeds (totaling $15k) were donated
to We Move Food, a philanthropic program of the organization
Feeding America. Sonsray has partnered with Feeding America and
food banks throughout California & Nevada to fight against
hunger and food instability.
We Move Food was created to increase access to fresh, healthy
food by reducing waste and assisting with nutrition education for
families and communities. 49 million Americans struggle to put food
on the table and hunger exists in every community across the United
States.
Today, the We Move Food program has donated $546,000 to hunger
relief organizations which amount to 5.5 million meals provided to
those in need.
The Force for Good initiative has participated in several
activities, including helping people with spinal injuries, planting
trees, providing meals, and building homes. The employees at
Sonsray are kind, compassionate, and genuinely good people, and the
Force for Good initiative reflects that.
