Community Warehouse

Mission

Community Warehouse provides donated furniture and household items to neighbors seeking the comfort, dignity and stability of a furnished home while overcoming adversity.

Bottom Line for Portland

Community Warehouse fills the gap between housing programs that help people find a place to live and the subsequent need for furnishings that allow people to do more than just camp out in empty rooms. 32% of people across the United States are experiencing furniture poverty, living without one or more essential household furniture item. Each year, we collect more than 100,000 donated items—mattresses, couches, tables, dressers, and more — and turn empty spaces into comfortable homes for more than 7,600 neighbors in need.  

Quote

“Coming from where I came from, community wasn't always there," one of our former clients, the artist Saleam, said. "So, I didn't really appreciate the value of it until I came across people at Community Warehouse and the other agencies that helped me. I realized community is everything. Community Warehouse played a major part in me continuing to walk on the right path.”
