Mission Statement

Our mission is transforming lives through community, compassion, and essential home furnishings. Everyone should have the comforts of a home.

Description

Furnishing Dignity, an Arizona non-profit, 501(c)(3) organization, collects and redistributes donated household furnishings (new and or gently used) to low-income people in need. Our clients are recovering from crises such as homelessness, domestic violence, disability, natural disaster or other traumatic events and are making their way to self-sufficiency. Furnishing Dignity provides a variety of household items, depending on the needs of the client. The most requested items are beds for children who have been sleeping on the floor with little more than a blanket, as well as pots and pans to cook a nutritious meal at home. For a variety of reasons, many lower-income families and individuals have a place to live but need help with their furnishings. We work to cover that gap, with the help of volunteers and donors.
