Bob's Discount Furniture's Poughkeepsie, N.Y., store collected more than 6,000 new pajamas and books for children in need, the Poughkeepsie Journal reported Friday.

The store was the primary sponsor of the Pajama Program's "Open You Heart" campaign in late February. The Pajama Program delivers sleepwear and books to children in need throughout the United States, many who live in orphanages, group homes and shelters.

The furniture chain's stores offered a chance for kids to meet famous TV characters from Nickelodeon and customers were encouraged to donate items.
