Home Sweet Home

Professional Organizers are often asked for recommendations on where to donate items no longer needed by their clients. Home Sweet Home is a furniture bank that partners with under-served individuals and families to furnish their homes, creating spaces that support stability, comfort, and dignity.

Scott McIntosh, Development Director at Home Sweet Home, will be providing an overview of the organization. He will share about their process of furnishing homes and hope. We will also learn about Home Sweet Home's partner agencies and impact to members of our community. Scott will discuss how to get involved at and donate to Home Sweet Home.  

Learning Objectives:

1. The mission of Home Sweet Home - including their vision & values.

2. How to get involved - volunteering and in-kind drives. 

3. How to donate - both household furnishings and monetary.
