Furniture Share's 13th Annual Fundraiser

This auction aims to help support our Wildfire Furniture Relief Program, BEDS for KIDS, and Welcome Home Kits for prior homeless veterans and their families. The substantial benefits of our Wildfire Furniture Relief Program are to quickly provide a house of furniture to families who lost their home or furniture from the September 2020 wildfires and to provide BEDS for KIDS so that children within our community no longer have to sleep on the floor, which improves their sleep and performance in school and improves safety, health, comfort, warmth, and quality of life for children. Our Welcome Home Kits increase comfort and safety in homes and increase wellness, independence, and physical and mental health by providing prior homeless Veterans and their families in need with the basic furniture and household items to improve their quality of life.

You might be thinking to yourself, what in the world is Furniture Share? What is furniture poverty? Sometimes we take the most basic needs for granted. It isn’t until we find ourselves without that we realize that many families don’t have the basic things to make a house a home.

The people we serve are members of your community. Many face unimaginable challenges. Some are leaving hostile situations. Many are recovering from illness and addiction. Most are struggling to get back on their feet after being homeless. Most of the people you help have children that they want to provide a home for. With basic needs such as a dining table, a dresser, and especially a bed. Your support helps parents for the first time, tuck their children into a real bed. Furniture Share not only helps families in need, but we also help Veterans who struggle with readjusting to civilian life. Many veterans experience homelessness and need help furnishing a home. Furniture Share can help.

How can you help? We need people just like you to help by bidding on these amazing auction items, making a one-time donation, or a recurring donation. With your help, one more child will feel safe, warm, and comfortable in their own bed. Where was the safest place for you as a child? Help us provide that for a family in need.
