Serving our communities
NW Furniture Bank helps restore hope, dignity and stability in our community by recycling donated furniture to people in need. Willing furniture store partners and local donations provide a steady source of furniture which would otherwise end up in the dump or sold at a loss. We serve victims of domestic abuse, people suffering loss from fire and natural disasters, foster children and especially families coming from transitional housing who are trying to rebuild their lives.
How we help
NW Furniture Bank is the source of furniture for agencies in Pierce County, South King and Clark counties with locations in Tacoma and Vancouver, WA. NWFB collects and warehouses furniture for qualified member agencies. As families move through the programs and transitional housing that helps them get back on their feet, they leave with little or nothing. Many can barely afford housing and food, let alone a bed to sleep on or a table to sit at. Furniture is a basic need that determines how people feel about themselves and also how well they will perform in the work place or at school.
Referred clients fill out a furniture request form and are given a appointment and then matched with a volunteer shopper who helps them shop for a household of furniture.
