OFF THE FLOOR: FURNITURE BANK

Off the Floor Pittsburgh is a faith based volunteer ministry which, since 2004, has provided basic used furniture like beds, dressers, tables, and chairs to disadvantaged families who lack these items. Off the Floor invites you -- individuals or teams -- to assist with furniture deliveries and pickups. They also need volunteers in their warehouse which is located on the North Side near Acrisure Stadium.

SOJOURNER HOUSE

Founded in 1991 by a group of women from Fox Chapel Presbyterian Church, Sojourner House and Sojourner House MOMS (Mentoring, Opportunity, Motivation, Spirituality) provide compassionate, faith-based residential recovery services to mothers and children in the Pittsburgh area. They help addicted mothers learn to break the intergenerational cycle of poverty and chemical abuse while rebuilding damaged relationships with their children.  Sojourner House believes women can shatter the chains of addiction and hopelessness when surrounded by what means most to them: their children. Learn more about how you can support this ministry!
