Overview

Mission

We provide home goods and furniture to newcomer families in the portland, or region. Often new families to america have stable housing and even a car, but rarely have needed beds, furniture, and general household goods. We are alerted about families through the beaverton school district's newcomer program, then we help deliver items directly to the families. We generally curate donated goods but also need to purchase goods. We rent a storage location that also allows families to "shop" for their goods since many of them have needs we cannot predict. Most of our families are from the southern border, the caribbean, and western africa.

What it reported doing in 2025

Goods received as donations (in-kind) from community or purchased

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
