All the necessities you can imagine to set up a home

We rely upon our community partner’s knowledge of the client and their situation. All of our clients come to us through referrals from social service agencies, non-profit organizations and churches. Referring Agents work individually with the clients and visit their homes to ensure they are eligible. This step is crucial, as this is a once in a lifetime opportunity for our clients.

Dear Mr. Petrasek,

Thank you so much for your letter inviting CCDFS workers to refer our needy families to A Lift Up Furniture Bank. And thank you for including the packet for referring agencies and clients. I will ask our manager to make this information available to all workers. A presentation about your program to staff would be welcome, as well.

God bless you and your staff and volunteers for providing this resource to needy families. Furniture has been extremely difficult for us to obtain for families with limited resources. Your program already helped two of my families to be reunified with their children!

I cannot tell you how much we all appreciate your good works.
