Volunteers at Uhuru!
Our volunteer teams put up posters in stores promoting donating to Uhuru Furniture to support the mission of the African People's Education and Defense Fund.

It’s fun! It’s easy! It's collective! And it means really important support for Uhuru Furniture & Collectibles, an economic development project of the African People's Education & Defense Fund (non-profit).

Uhuru Furniture & Collectibles is a used furniture and collectibles store on Grand Ave in Oakland. We are celebrating our 25th year in business! Everything in the store is donated. Oftentimes, we are offered the remains after an estate sale. We go out to the estate (all over the bay area) with boxes and packing materials and pack-up the collectibles before the truck team arrives to load the furniture as well as collectibles.

We need volunteers who want to come out and help with this! No skills are required, but if you are good at knowing what items have value, this is certainly a valuable contribution.

Uhuru Furniture & Collectibles is an economic development project of the African People's Education and Defense Fund (APEDF). APEDF strives to develop and institutionalize programs to defend the human and civil rights of the African community and the address the grave disparities in education, health, health care and economic development faced by the African community.
