Digs With Dignity

At Digs with Dignity, our mission is to break the cycle of homelessness by furnishing homes with creative, custom designs using sustainable, up cycled solutions. As a 501(c)(3), Digs with Dignity partners with Chicago-based social service agencies to identify those in need and utilizes a warehouse of donated and refurbished furniture and home goods to outfit homes. We work with a variety of individuals and families that may include domestic abuse victims, veterans, those who have experienced a sudden job loss or those dealing with extreme health situations.

In addition to helping the Chicago community, we are committed to zero waste. Every piece of furniture, knick knack, linen and kitchen accessory that comes to us as a donation is either put into a home as-is, or is repaired, up-cycled, and refurbished (by our amazing in-house woodworker and “repair-anything man”) for a home. We are dedicated to reducing the amount of used furniture that ends up in landfills by repurposing it for good.
