Like the many charitable organizations in Cincinnati, New Life Furniture has a clear mission statement: “We are a furniture bank; we collect gently used furniture, inspect and clean it, and deliver the items directly to the homes of families in need. Many of our clients have recently overcome homelessness, suffered a recent accident or natural disaster or have fled from an abusive situation. In all cases the families we serve are in dire need, but have shown they are working diligently to better their life circumstances. Many live at or below the poverty level, making it difficult, if not impossible, for them to purchase basic items for their homes. It is our hope that we can in some small way ease their burden by providing most of their furniture needs that make a basic living space a home.”
