Your Trusted Furniture Donation Center in Sioux Falls, SD
Furniture Mission was founded on the belief that a comfortable home provides dignity, security, and a better environment for families. Our mission demonstrates the love of Christ by providing gently used furniture and household items to individuals and families in need, free of charge. Every recipient is referred through social service agencies, schools, churches, or hospitals, ensuring we serve those most in need. Our operations rely on a dedicated team of volunteers and staff who manage daily tasks including furniture pickup and delivery, cleaning, repairs, and warehouse organization.We maintain accountability through a volunteer Board of Directors who guide our mission to remain effective and efficient. Each household receiving furniture also receives a Bible and information about spiritual study groups, reinforcing our commitment to serving both material and spiritual needs. With community support, we continue to collect and distribute donated items, transforming houses into homes while spreading compassion and faith.
