Accessing Furniture Bank

For families and agencies – how to access the community program services.

***SERVICE CHANGE ANNOUNCEMENT*** In response to the Covid-19 pandemic, the City of Toronto has expedited efforts to move people to permanent housing. This empty housing requires an increase in Furniture Bank’s services to accelerate essential furnishing for over 400 supportive housing units in the coming weeks. Effective immediately, Furniture Bank’s resources will be focused on this priority in 2021.

Need furniture donation? Access our services

Furniture Bank supports families and individuals experiencing furniture poverty, including women and children leaving shelters, people transitioning from homelessness, and newcomers and refugees to Canada. Individuals who are in a vulnerable position, including those on a low income or new immigrants to Toronto, may be eligible to receive free furniture and other support.

NEED FREE FURNITURE? HERE’S WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW FIRST.

You cannot make an appointment directly with Furniture Bank.
You must be referred by one of our agency partners.
If you have a worker from a social service agency, please ask your worker if the organization is a Furniture Bank Partner. If it is, your worker will let you know if you are eligible to receive a Furniture Bank Referral.

Our community partners

We work in partnership with over 140 agencies and shelters to assist marginalized individuals and families who are experiencing furniture poverty. Our partner agencies play a critical role by helping to screen potential furniture recipients. This helps us focus on our commitment to ensuring those who transition out of homelessness and displacement are given the best possible chance to succeed in life.
