Please read to learn next steps and ensure you agree to these terms:⁠

1. Furnishing Families of Texas prioritizes family units of more than one person. Because of our mission, single individuals with no children may be placed on a separate wait list or denied service depending on circumstances.⁠

⁠2. We are not an "upgrade" service. To be a good steward of our resources, we look to provide furnishings to meet a household’s needs. We may provide beds/furniture to replace existing ones already owned if these beds and/or furniture are nearly destroyed or unable to be used for reasonable reasons. We reserve the right to withhold items if we observe the items already owned are in good condition. Most of our items are in gently used condition. Mattresses are brand new or in new condition.⁠

⁠3. If your application is approved, your family will be placed in line on a first come first serve basis. This could be a shorter or longer list, depending on the amount of recent requests at the time. We currently are not able to give an exact wait time once approved. Wait times could be a week, many weeks, or over a month.⁠

⁠4. If your needs become fulfilled during the waiting process from another source, please let us know as soon as possible to either update your list or remove your place in line.⁠

⁠5. If you meet this criteria and agree to these terms, please email hope@ffotex.com with your name, phone #, best email address, number of people in your family, and what city you live in. Our client coordinator will follow up with you for the next steps in our interview process.⁠


About Us

What started as a childhood dream for an orphanage has become a community-transforming movement. Founder Annabelle Wallnau created Furnishing Families of Texas to meet the physical and spiritual needs of single moms and their children. Now, this outreach includes any family unit with limited or no resources.

We provide beds, bedding, furniture, kitchenware, and more to predominantly single moms with children in need in the DFW area.

Our warehouse is filled and poised from estate sale acquisitions, resale furniture stores, wholesale mattress suppliers, in-kind donations, hotel renovations, and generous partners to serve the families that find us. Our team of movers delivers complete households to families daily. The news of the work of Furnishing Families of Texas inspires people worldwide to take action in their communities. Join us today!

Our Vision

Furnishing Families is a Christian Organization that changes the trajectory of a child’s and family’s life experience, starting with a bed to sleep in, furniture to sit on, and a table to eat at—creating a newly furnished home.

We are incredibly grateful for generous givers with a heart for families. Our partners can contribute financially, through volunteering, and in donating items.

This work shares the love and goodness of God by bringing furniture directly to families. Free deliveries are made without the intervention of social services or case workers.

How we began…

“In March 2018, we had a water disaster in our home that required us to remove the contents of a bedroom and give the furniture away. I called our local Rapid Rehousing program at The Center For Transforming Lives, and within minutes, they gave me the name of a woman who needed the bedroom set. She was just moving into her first apartment. We quickly found out that her 7 year old didn't have a bed and had actually never slept in a bed in his life. His twin bed was the very first mattress that we purchased. Since then, we've given over 1000 beds to families in need!”

- Annabelle Wallnau, Founder
