Most of us spend Christmas eating meals around a table and opening gifts in a living room while sitting on sofas and chairs. The furniture that we use each day helps make a home house a home.
Imagine all of those memories you have at Christmas, now imagine them without furniture. No dining table to eat around. No sofa to sit on. That’s the situation some individuals and families in Pierce county are in this Christmas. For them basic furniture is a luxury and furnishing a home is more of a dream than a reality.
Because of this we have served with and supported the Northwest Furniture Bank for many years.
This year we found out that there are families that are in such dire need that they can’t even afford the $100 fee to receive a household of furniture. Not having $100 seems unimaginable to most of us. But, it is the reality for many families in Pierce County.
This year we want to make sure that every family who needs furniture can get it. We don’t want to let $100 stand in the way of making a house a home.
Our goal is to raise $10,000. That will mean that 100 families can get the scholarship they need to receive furniture.
So help us give the gift of home this Christmas.
