Helping With Furniture / Aidons avec des meubles

Helping With Furniture / Aidons avec des meubles We provide the comforts of home to displaced people living in Ottawa. Every week we collect and deliver these household items. Everything we do for them is free.

Donations from our community help us support our clients, reduce furniture poverty, and keep useful items out of landfills. Many Ottawa residents have good quality furniture and furnishings that are surplus to their needs. Often we arrive to empty houses; our task is to leave them furnished and to leave our Families feeling welcomed, and hopeful. Helping with Furniture is entirely staffed and operated by volunteers. The cost for us to completely furnish a home is less than $190.00.

Whether you like to sleep under the bed or on top of the bed, a sheet makes all the difference. 🏰🛌

To a child, a single sheet isn’t just bedding—it’s a cape, a fort, and a sense of security. Right now, we are in urgent need of single sheet donations to ensure our clients and their families have the comfort and dignity they deserve.

We are collecting new or gently used single (twin) sheets for our kiddos.
We need lots!!!!!
Donate and help them dream!

⏰ URGENT NEED!!!! COMMUNITY REQUEST

WALKER NEEDED
Helping With Furniture is reaching out to our wonderful community for assistance.
Our client is hoping to receive a walker as soon as possible.

We are currently looking for a walker for a client who would greatly benefit from additional mobility support. If you have a clean, gently used walker that is no longer needed, we would be grateful for your donation.

A simple donation can make a tremendous difference in someone's daily life, helping them maintain their independence, safety, and quality of life.

If you have a walker to donate, please send us a message or contact our team [email protected]

Thank you for helping us support our neighbours and build a stronger, more caring community. ❤️

🛏️🧺 WE NEED TOWELS & BLANKETS! 🧺🛏️

Helping With Furniture is currently looking for donations of clean, gently used or new towels and blankets of all sizes.

For many of the individuals and families we support, receiving furniture is only part of creating a comfortable home. Fresh towels and warm blankets help turn a house into a place of dignity, comfort, and belonging.

We are especially in need of:
✔️ Bath towels
✔️ Hand towels
✔️ Face cloths
✔️ Twin, double, queen, and king-size blankets
✔️ Children's blankets

Every donation makes a difference and helps us support families transitioning out of homelessness, newcomers to Canada, seniors, individuals fleeing violence, and others facing difficult circumstances.

📍 Donations can be dropped off at Helping With Furniture during our regular donation hours.

Please share this post to help us spread the word throughout our community!

💛 Together, we can help ensure that everyone has the comfort and warmth they deserve.
