The Community Portal

Good things deserve a second home.

A kitchen table, a set of dishes, a reading lamp. Items that one family no longer needs can make a real difference for another. The Community Portal makes sure they get there.

Everything we pass on is cleaned and checked first. It reaches neighbors in need through requests on our portal and through our partners at local food pantries and women’s shelters.

  1. Items come in

    From our clean-outs, from downsizing clients who choose to donate, and from community donations.

  2. We clean and sort

    Every item is cleaned, checked and organized at our workshop before it goes anywhere.

  3. They find a new home

    Through portal requests and our partner food pantries and women’s shelters, items go to neighbors who need them.

In her own words
You didn’t just give me furniture and household items; you helped give me a fresh start and the feeling that someone still believes in me.

“Because of your kindness, I now have things to fill my new apartment, and for the first time in a very long time, it actually feels like a home. What touched me most was how kind you both were. I felt absolutely zero judgment from either of you, just pure generosity and care.”

Real neighbors, real fresh starts

Who your donations have helped.

Names and details are kept private.

  • A new start after recovery

    People who have worked hard to overcome addiction and are moving from halfway houses into homes of their own. We help fill those first rooms with the basics.

  • Starting over, safely

    Women who have left abusive marriages and are building a new life, often with nothing more than what they could carry. A bed, a table and a full kitchen help a new place become home.

  • Rebuilding after a fire

    A family who lost everything in a house fire, with no insurance to cover the loss. Donated furniture and household goods gave them a place to begin again.
