Every couch donated.
Every table purchased.
Every dresser dropped off.
Every person who chooses to shop preloved with FIND.
It all adds up to something bigger.
Because of community support, FIND furnished 168 homes in May, helping 224 people transition out of homelessness and into housing.
And while furniture may seem simple, we see every day how much it matters.
A couch creates comfort.
A table creates connection.
A furnished space becomes a safe place to land at the end of the day.
Empty spaces slowly begin to feel comfortable, welcoming and lived in.
That transformation happens because people across Edmonton continue to show up for one another through donations, shopping and supporting FIND.
We believe everyone deserves a place that feels like home.
As we move through June, that message carries even more meaning. During Pride Month, we’re reminded that “There’s No Place Like Home” means everyone deserves safety, belonging and the freedom to be fully themselves.
June is also National Indigenous History Month, a time to recognize and honour the histories, cultures, resilience and contributions of First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples, while acknowledging the ongoing impacts of housing inequity and displacement experienced by Indigenous communities.
This month, FIND will also be out in the community at markets, events and gatherings across Edmonton. We’re excited to connect, share stories and talk more about how furniture changes lives. If you see us around, come say hello.
The work of creating homes is truly community work.
And it continues because of YOU.
If you would like to support FIND, consider:
• Donating furniture and household items
• Sharing our work with your community
Every contribution helps create HOME.
Thank you, Edmonton, for being part of the solution to ending homelessness!
