*For gently-used items listed above, please consider if it’s something you’d offer to a guest in your own home. If you would, we would love to extend your gift to someone in need! If it’s something you wouldn’t give a house guest, we don’t want to give it to one of ours, either.
Furniture Donations
To donate, please send photos of each furniture item. We’ll determine if we’re able to place the item with a family before we accept the donation. Please make sure all hardware is in a plastic bag, taped to the furniture item.
We accept the following furniture:

- Couches/sofas (no sleeper sofas)
