Found in Faith Ministries
FFM is an extension of the furniture ministry run by Fallston Presbyterian for many years. We often support clients moving out of the homeless shelter into their own apartments by providing furniture, linens, and small appliances needed for self-sufficiency. FFM goes further by opening to the larger community in need. FFM also hopes to start other programs which will be helpful to those we serve.
You can help by:
-
Donating your time to help pick up donated furniture from donors, or deliver furniture to clients.
-
Donating your furniture: sofas and chairs, tables, mattresses and box springs, bed frames, lamps, drapes, bed linens, dressers, dishes, area rugs, televisions, and small appliances. Please note that items must be in good condition and clean.
In addition to these three agencies where we give a lot of our time, energy, and resources, we support many more organizations trying to make a difference in our communities right here in Harford County and beyond:
