Bridging is the largest furniture bank the United States and Canada. They provide gently used furniture and household goods to people transitioning out of homelessness and poverty, and those who are fleeing domestic abuse, facing natural disasters, live with debilitating disabilities, or are refugees from war-torn countries. Donating your gently used items helps to reduce the strain on landfills, as well as gives hope to thousands of people in need.
