Here’s a Great Resource: Did You Know?
Furniture banks can be found in every major US city. Today I’m introducing you to The Cleveland Furniture Bank (CFB). CFB recently relocated to Southland Shopping Center in Middleburg Heights. The move allowed them to consolidate their operations under one roof, expand their thrift store, and provide more space for needy clients to see and select from a greater array of furniture as they rebuild their lives.
Started in 2006, the Cleveland Furniture Bank depends on donations of furniture and other items to help those in need. Home pick-ups are available for a small fee in all of Cuyahoga County, most of Lake and Geauga counties, northern Summit and Medina counties and eastern Lorain County. Another aspect of the Cleveland Furniture Bank is their thrift store that offers a great selection of new and gently used furniture, clothing, household goods, and much more. Come in and visit or shop Monday – Friday, 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Saturday, 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. Closed on Sundays. Donations are accepted from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. The Cleveland Furniture Bank is located at 13360 Smith Rd in Middleburg Heights, Ohio, 44130. It’s probably best to call them before coming with your donations — (216) 459-2265, Ext. 101.

NOTE:
Not from Cleveland? Google Your city + furniture bank ~ most cities have something of this nature to help you s-t-r-e-t-c-h your dollars or help you get on your feet! Nearly every major city I checked from Seattle to Dallas, to Atlanta and Tampa right up the east coast to Portland, Maine, you’ll find a furniture bank to help those who at this particular time in their life — need a little extra help and care. If you are from a smaller town and can’t locate one nearby, call a few of your local churches and I’m sure you’ll find just want you need.
May you or a friend be blessed by this information today!
