Make a donation
With our mission of “Making Empty Houses Homes,” Houston Furniture Bank is working to create an environment where children don’t have to sleep on the floor, where families can sit at a table together for their meals, and where the dignity and self-esteem of independent living can thrive. Just $250 will provide a child with a new mattress, foundation and bed frame. A gift of any amount is most welcome.

It was developed to supplement funding initiatives for Houston Furniture Bank through the resale of donated items. These items, both new and gently used, are donated by major furniture companies and members of the Hotel & Lodging Association, as well as other local businesses and individuals. All proceeds from purchases benefit Houston Furniture Bank programs and services.
