The Chattanooga Furniture Bank makes every effort to ensure that individuals and families have the furniture they need to turn housing into a home.

It helps those who are moving from homelessness to permanent housing in our community. Gently used, donated furniture is given at no charge to families verified to be in need by partner agencies that work with homeless and displaced families in our neighborhoods.

Battered women and children in retreat, working families struggling to stay above the poverty line, victims of natural disasters and homeless individuals and families you encounter on the streets all have something in common. If they can manage to find housing, their homes are often empty. After expenses such as food, utilities and rent are paid, these families often have nothing left for even the most basic household furnishings. Without furniture, it’s nearly impossible to create a stable, welcoming home environment.

You can help!  Here's how.
