Story
At St Vincent’s Furniture Project in Sheffield, we are dedicated to transforming empty houses into warm, welcoming homes for individuals and families facing challenging circumstances. From providing a comfortable bed to sleep in to a table where families can gather, our mission is simple but impactful: to furnish homes safely and comfortably for those in need, at no cost to those in need.
As part of the St Vincent de Paul Society England and Wales, we support people struggling with poverty, social isolation, health issues and other hardships. Our dedicated team of staff and volunteers work tirelessly to ensure that no one has to sleep on the floor or live without essential household furniture and other items.
In 2024, we supported 3,183 people – the largest number we’ve ever reached in a single year. The need is growing and with your help, we can continue to meet the demand.
In addition to providing furniture, we also operate a food pantry and distribute food parcels to individuals and families in need. With the rising cost of living, our food services have become invaluable for struggling families and individuals.
We’ve seen a significant rise in the number of referrals for unfurnished tenancies and the need for our services has never been greater. But we can’t do it alone. Your generous donation will help us cover our core costs, including furniture collection and delivery, volunteer support and our upcycling workshop, where we give new life to donated items and train young people affected by homelessness with practical skills.
By supporting our JustGiving campaign, you’ll be helping to provide essential furniture, home comforts and food support to those who need it most.
Together, we can make a real difference in turning houses into homes.
Please donate today and share our page to spread the word. Every contribution counts and brings hope to someone in need.
Thank you for your support.
