Join us on Moving Day to assist with delivery as we transform a house into a home for a homeless family, individual, or foster youth. By providing beds, tables, dishes, couches, etc. We ease the burden of our clients trying to furnish an empty apartment while working towards becoming self sustainable. Our service allows our clients to focus on work, school, and caring for their families. We meet at or storage unit, Armored Self Storage, 14245 S. 48th Street, Phoenix, 85044 at 7:30am. We will load the truck, drive to the client’s home, unload the truck, set up the furniture and unpack household items. Volunteers are asked to carpool or drive themselves to the delivery location. Location of delivery will be determined closer to the work date. Able-bodied volunteers may be asked to lift heavy items and/or assemble furniture. There are less strenuous volunteer activities as well (unpacking boxes and making beds). A Volunteer Waiver and Confidentiality Agreement MUST be signed prior to volunteer day. Times may vary depending on location of the client’s home and number of moves to be completed. We usually finish work by noon.

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.
