Furnishing Faith assists people emerging from homelessness and have secured a permanent home.  We partner with social service agencies to identify individuals or families in need. Most of the time they are only supplied a bed so we assist by fully furnishing the home with community donations of furniture, household goods, decor, linens, etc. This provides a functional and aesthetic home so a new chapter of their life can begin with dignity and comfort.
