Furniture Friends NWA

Providing Furniture & Friendship to International Students and Refugees in Northwest Arkansas

Will YOU partner with us today to help reach our fundraising goal?

Furniture Friends NWA exists to help international students and refugee families feel truly at home. We meet practical needs by providing quality furniture items for free, while also creating opportunities for meaningful friendships and community where God's hope and love can be shared and experienced.

What We Do

🏠 Furnishing Homes
Each year, we help furnish more than 300 apartments, transforming empty spaces into comfortable homes (made possible by furniture donations from the community).

🤝 Building Friendships
Our volunteers from local churches don’t just deliver furniture — they extend welcome, kindness, and ongoing connection (we partner with 12+ churches each year).

🛒 Transportation Support
We organize volunteer-led ride weekends to grocery stores and international markets for international families who don't have their own vehicle.

🌍 Community & Cultural Events
We host gatherings that bring internationals and Americans together, including:

• • • • International women’s events & discussion groups

      • Holiday connections (including Fourth of July, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Valentine's, etc)

      • Relationship-building opportunities

      • Sports opportunities (internationals learning American sports & American's learning international sports).

🎁 Welcoming New Arrivals
We provide welcome gifts for newly arrived international students and refugee families — creating a natural bridge for new friendships.
