Furnish for Good

FFG helps our neighbors in need by donating well-loved home furnishings through a unique, empowering experience. Rather than simply handing out donated items, we take the time to curate the furnishings in a custom setting and partner with social workers to showcase them to perspective recipients. This process ends up giving the recipients much more than the furnishings to make a home – it gives them a sense of self-respect and dignity.
