The University of Houston is releasing dorm room furniture to charities in need. All of the agencies receiving the furniture assist the homeless. Your efforts on this one day will make it possible for hundreds of homeless people to rest comfortably and with dignity this winter.
Families to Freedom is coordinating this effort between the university and five other nonprofits receiving the furniture. On Tuesday December 12th we have 1 day to move twin beds, 3-drawer dressers, writing desks and chairs from the dorms to a moving truck. The dorm is 3 floors with no elevators so the more help we can get, the easier and faster this move will go.
If you live in Houston- fantastic! We'll give you directions on when and where to meet on campus.
If you live in Dallas-Ft. Worth- no problem! We'll provide a carpool solution for everyone to and from Houston.
None of the furniture is big or overly heavy. For details email volunteer@familiestofreedom.org

Mission Statement
Our mission is transport victims of domestic abuse to safety.
Description
Families to Freedom provides free transportation services to victims and their children who have experienced domestic abuse. We make it possible for victims and new survivors to get far away from abusive relationships. Our life-saving services include car rides to domestic violence shelters across the region, road trips to family homes in other states, multi-state bus tickets, and fuel assistance to relocate far away. We serve victims and new survivors across North Texas, East Texas, and the Gulf Coast area. We drive over 900 victims and children each year between two offices located in Dallas and Houston. We rely on the generous support of the community to continue providing these services at no cost to the victims who call us.
