To aid those who are experiencing unfortunate circumstances within our community. By taking gently used household items and repurposing them for those who are in disadvantaged situations we make a “shelter” a “home”…

 

Niagara Furniture Bank collects gently used housewares and furniture in order to provide individuals, seniors, children and families with beds, furnishings and other housewares.

The members of your community that receive these items are referred by 86 organizations like: Ontario Works, Ontario Disability Support Programs, Canadian Mental Health Association, Public Health, Family and Children’s Services, YWCA – Shelters and Transitional Housing, Hope Centre, Port Cares, Community Cares and other local referral partners. We also serve those not represented by a community organization through our internal referral process that allows us to help the living poor. 

Since becoming a charity January 1, 2008 Niagara Furniture Bank has been helping families and continues to grow within the Niagara Region. In 2009 when we got our first truck, we served 43 families and individuals. In 2021 we assisted 704 families and 667 individuals with housewares needed to make a safe home. We also repurposed almost 500,000 pounds of housewares that would have otherwise ended up in our landfills.
