Northwest Furniture Bank

​

​Founded in 2007, the NW Furniture Bank (NWFB) mission is to restore hope, dignity and stability in our community by recycling donated furniture to people in need. Our desire is for all families to have beds, tables, chairs, and the furnishings necessary to turn any house into a real home. NWFB serves families who are trying to rebuild their lives coming from situations like transitional housing, domestic abuse, suffering a loss from fire or natural disaster and young adults leaving foster homes. All our clients are low income and include veterans, the disabled or anyone living without furniture. Our services fill the gap between a person finding a home and furnishing it with the essential items.  http://www.nwfurniturebank.org

​

needs:  Gently used toys and games (complete with no missing pieces).

Through these efforts we endeavor to mobilize Prairie Ridge residents to improve the community through environmental and policy change.

Our Goals:​

• Bridge the gap between Prairie Ridge residents with the surrounding schools, cities, organizations and resources.
• Identify and develop programs that serve the needs of the community, including programs that address violence, drug, tobacco, alcohol and crime prevention.
• With the help of partners, create meaningful and sustainable programs, projects and activities for the benefit of community members.
• Incorporating the Five Promises, develop programs and build our capacity to serve our community. The five fundamental resources that young people need to succeed: 
  1)caring adults (includes positive relationships with neighbors & positive role models)
  2)safe places (includes being physically and emotionally safe in community & constructive use of time)
  3) a healthy start (includes good nutrition and exercise as well as healthy habits and role models)
  4) effective education (includes developing marketable skills, education, and mentoring)
  5) opportunities to help others (includes volunteering, sense of responsibility, and caring behavior )
