The mission of Humble Design is to furnish homes for families and individuals transitioning out of homelessness and into stable housing. They aim to create warm, welcoming environments that empower these families to rebuild their lives with dignity and hope.

We extend our assistance to individuals and families who are transitioning out of homelessness into stable housing. There is no direct application process—our services are accessible to those referred to us by partnering agencies, including shelters and human services organizations, who authorize and guide the referral process.

We're actively looking for ways to identify future expansion.

If you or someone you know is seeking assistance from Humble Design, there are alternative avenues to explore. One option is to reach out to The Furniture Bank in your area. Additionally, you can visit the 211.org website for additional sources of assistance in your area. We appreciate your understanding and consideration in not burdening the case managers of our partnering agencies with direct requests for referral.

We do not help or provide housing for the clients. They either work with our partnering agencies who help them secure housing, or find it on their own. Having housing already secured is a requirement to be referred.

Humble Design supports families in need by furnishing their homes as they transition out of homelessness into stable housing. Through our compassionate efforts, we create warm and welcoming environments, empowering families to rebuild their lives with dignity and hope.
