Final numbers are in and we’re proud to announce that Chair Affair raised $67,000. That’s an additional 268 family homes we can now furnish. This comes just in time to continue our efforts in supporting refugees establish new homes with dignity, comfort and stability including families coming over from Syria.
Thank you to all of our sponsors, designers, guests, auctioneers, volunteers and social media supporters for making the 2015 Chair Affair the biggest one yet!
