Transforming

shelters into homes.

It isn't just about furniture. Every child deserves a safe place to sleep. Families gather around a table—to eat, laugh, and grow. With your help, we empower women, children and families fleeing poverty and oppression to make a fresh start.

Our Programs

REFUGEE SERVICES

We give shelter, food and refugee support in a family atmosphere so refugees may begin their journey to independence. Learn about refugees' immediate needs and how you can help.

Furniture Bank

We help those who are transitioning to permanent housing make their new space feel like home. Our warehouse is stocked by the generous and gently used donations of our community.
