Everyone Can Help Someone

 

Nearly one in six households in the Sioux Falls area makes less than $20,000 a year, and many of these families are living without even the most basic of furnishings. The Furniture Mission was able to serve 1600 of these households in 2014 and with your help, can continue to serve the community for years to come. 

What your donation will fund

  • Fuel to deliver furniture to those who can't pick it up

  • Maintenance on the trucks used in these deliveries

  • Maintenance on the warehouses used to store donations

  • Salary for the 5 staff that coordinate the Mission's day-to-day operations

  • Materials for our Workshop to custom build infrequently donated items (i.e. box springs / toddler beds)

When you donate to the Furniture Mission, you can be confident that your tax-deductible donation will be truly be changing the life of someone else for the better. Whether your donation is $5 or $5000, it will make a difference to someone in need. Please consider participating in any of our annual fundraisers (Indoor and Outdoor Golf Tournaments, Chairity Gala (formerly Ladies Night Out), and Chase the Queen) or donate anytime.

Donate Furniture

Your gently used items can change lives.

When you donate your household items to the Furniture Mission, you impact the lives of the less fortunate in our community by making houses into homes. What is excess to you may fulfill basic needs for many families.
