  • Who is getting my donated furniture?
    Your furniture goes directly to individuals and families transitioning out of homelessness, survivors of domestic violence, veterans, and low-income households. Right now, half of the homes we furnish include kids. Your donation helps create a safe, stable home for people rebuilding their lives.
  • How long has HomeAhead been around?
    We started in 2019 after learning about a woman who moved into housing with nothing but a backpack. We couldn’t let that happen again—so we got to work!
  • What has HomeAhead accomplished?
    With the help of donors like you, we’ve furnished homes for 1,500+ people in Boulder County and kept thousands of pounds of furniture out of landfills.
  • What does HomeAhead do with financial donations?
    First, we do a happy dance. Then, we put your donation to work! Your financial gifts help us keep our truck running, pay for storage, cover furniture pickups, and fill in the gaps when donations run low.
  • Is HomeAhead a 501(c)(3) nonprofit?
    Yes! Your donations are tax-deductible, and we’re happy to provide a receipt.
  • Why do you charge for furniture pickups?
    Unlike thrift stores, we don’t sell furniture—we give it away. Our small pickup fee helps cover truck costs, fuel, and staffing so we can keep doing what we do.
  • Why do you only accept certain items?
    Think of us as furniture matchmakers—we focus on essential, high-quality pieces that fit well in small homes. We don’t have space for oversized or repair-needing items.
  • Why aren’t your donation hours more open?
    We’re a small but mighty team balancing pickups, deliveries, and storage. Scheduled donation times help us make the most of our resources (and sanity).
  • Why do items need to be in near-new condition?
    Would you want your fresh start to include a stained couch? Our clients deserve furniture they can feel proud of. Since we can’t clean or repair items, we ask that donations be in great shape.
  • Is it true? HomeAhead now offers a clear-out service?
    Yes! Need help clearing out small spaces like apartments or senior living homes? You can hire HomeAhead for a fee, knowing your items will help families in need instead of going to waste.
  • How is HomeAhead funded?
    We rely on grants, community donations, and awesome supporters like you to keep our furniture bank running. Every gift—whether a couch, a table, or a financial donation—makes a difference.
  • How can I do more to help?
    Furniture poverty is a completely solvable problem, and we’d love for you to be part of the solution! Whether you donate, volunteer, or spread the word, you’re helping families build a better future.
  • Sign me up! How do I donate furniture, give money, or hire you for a clear-out?

And if you have questions, reach out—we'd love to hear from you!

We are a small (but mighty) team.
