House 2 Home Network, a virtual furniture bank operating out of the Whatcom Volunteer Center, has been accepted into the National Furniture Bank Association. The network recently passed the six month mark. It is the first virtual furniture bank in the country, which entails volunteers picking up furniture from donors’ homes and delivering it to customers’ homes, free of charge.

Within its first six months, the House 2 Home network has delivered 221 items to people who were formerly homeless in 64 different households in Whatcom County.
