About us
Furniture Friends is a nonprofit, 501(c)(3) organization based in Westbrook, ME that reduces homelessness and improves housing stability by collecting donated furniture and distributing it to individuals and families in southern Maine. Since our founding in 2012, we have helped over 13,000 people (including 5,000 children) create their homes by providing them with essential items (like beds, bureaus, dining tables, chairs, sofas and lamps) free-of-charge. Recipients include formerly unhoused individuals, neighbors recovering from substance use, new or recent immigrants, individuals starting over after domestic violence or abuse, veterans, disabled and elderly individuals. With ongoing support from the community, we are able to fulfill our mission of "Creating Homes. Rebuilding Lives."

Thank you Hope Acts for your collaboration and all that you do for the community! 🙏
Last week, Hope Acts staff joined our friends at Furniture Friends for a morning of volunteering in their warehouse. Furniture Friends does so much to support families and individuals, including many of our clients, as they move into their new homes in Maine. Thank you for welcoming us!

Happy World Sustainability Day! We believe that sustainability is everyone's responsibility. Recycling and reusing items that have life left in them just makes sense. Visit us at www.furniturefriends.org to inquire about donating your extra furniture. #reduce #reuse #recycle #creatinghomes #rebuildinglives

At Furniture Friends, we aim to provide good quality, essential items--that still have a lot of life left in them--to our neighbors in need. We want our clients to start over with items they can be proud to have in their space. For a fuller list of items we can/cannot accept, please visit https://lnkd.in/giqz-Mtj. And don't hesitate to reach out, if you have an item and are unsure if it meets our guidelines. #creatinghomes #rebuildinglives
