Welcome Home Team

A great way for groups to do some Community Service is with our Welcome Home Team. The third Saturday of each month Family Promise takes furniture to families who have moved out of our homeless shelter and into their own homes. 


Volunteering would mean that a group adopts one of the Saturday's of the year, brings about 6-8 strong and able volunteers. The group will pick up furniture around the Buffalo community with a U-Haul and deliver the furniture to our families' homes. 


The day starts at 9:30 am at Family Promise and goes no later than 2 pm. 


Why is this important?

When our families leave our shelter they often leave in need of kitchen tables, chairs, couches, beds, to name the biggest items. We have gracious donors who give us amazing pieces of furniture, but need help transporting this furniture!


This is why we have formed a volunteer base to help support our families get into the home they want. 


Jobs include: 

  • picking up furniture
  • delivering furniture
  • move furniture into families' homes
  • accepting LOTS of thanks from Family Promise staff and families


Groups may sign up for this volunteer opportunity as far in advance as needed. Please send us an email using the form below for additional information.
