Move Houston Service Project: Houston Furniture Bank

Move Houston service projects are opportunities for students and their families to get out of their comfort zones and put themselves to work for the Houston community and for God's kingdom.

"Furniture is a critical stepping stone to improve living conditions and elevate an individual’s personal pride and dignity. Recipients are referred to the Houston Furniture Bank by more than 75 Social Service Agencies in the Greater Houston area. These families are transitioning to independent living while struggling with extreme poverty. Some have become impoverished due to natural disasters, such as floods or fires; for others, their access to independence has been affected by mental challenges, physical disabilities, chemical dependencies, or catastrophic health issues such as AIDS. While some are victims of domestic violence or refugees of political persecution, still others such as Veterans, Senior Citizens, or single parents, have become unable to gain employment or earn adequate wages to support themselves."

On September 22, from 12:30-4PM, we will be helping out the Houston Furniture Bank with various tasks in their warehouse, including assembling new furniture, tearing apart old mattresses for recycling, and preparing furniture for their recipients. Please eat lunch before joining us.

Move Houston Service Projects are great times for the whole family to serve together! Families of 6th-12th Grade students are welcome to come and join us-don’t leave little brother at home! As always, please bring a friend!

Register if you plan to attend as it helps us know how many students to prepare for.

Registration closes on 9/22 at 10AM.
