Session Overview

CFB has found endless demand for our service and supply of furniture. We have quickly expanded our capacity, hiring 11 employees from workforce development programs and furnish seven homes per day. We want to be able to keep on growing our capacity sustainability.

Nonprofit Overview

We collect donated furniture and give it those in need through our partnership with 150+ local nonprofits. We currently furnish seven homes per day for the formerly homeless, victims of domestic violence and other populations that face extreme poverty. It is our goal to create a real home by providing furniture to those who would otherwise be living without.
