Description

It works with local nonprofits to serve foster youth, those aging out of care, and families and individuals transitioning from homelessness and shelters to a place of their own. For 2021, Furnishing Dignity served 208 households and 509 individuals. This had a significant impact since most of these families or adults had few personal possessions – only items they could carry.

All of those served through this project were economically disadvantaged, often living at or below the federal poverty level, and ready to transition out of shelter or foster care into their own homes. Each of the households served were financially vetted to ensure our home furnishings were placed in homes that had a consistent and steady monthly income, either through employment and/or
