Ready to make a furniture or household good donation to a neighbor in need? Please complete the form below.
What We Can Accept
When a homeless person gets a room or apartment, often he or she moves in with only the clothes on their back. One of the important services provided by Off The Streets is to supply them with a complete set of furniture and household items. Most people coming off the streets move into rooms or small apartments, not full houses. There is very limited space, and they have basic needs. Below is a list of items we are currently accepting.
We know how much everyone wants to contribute, and we are very grateful for all of the support we have received from the community. However, if you have items that are not on this list, please find another home for them. We have limited storage space so to keep costs low we must be careful about the items we take.
The key to the success of Off The Streets is that we keep it simple!
