Who We Give To
Restore Décor responds to needs in our community on an on-going basis. Each week, we find out about families that can use a hand up. Sometimes, they need furniture and we are able to donate beds, dressers, and other needed items quickly in crisis situations. Several times throughout the year, we pick a different local family or organization directly serving people in need. We advertise that 100% of Saturday's net sales will go directly to that family/group.
People often ask how we distribute our proceeds and how we choose the families and organizations that we help. The answer is simple: YOU TELL US! Please let us know if there’s a local family that could use a hand up or a local organization that is directly serving people in need.
Our list is long and ever-changing. Learn more about the amazing families and organizations that Restore Décor has supported from 2014-present.
NOTE: When Restore Decor started in 2013, Newsong Fellowship Church generously offered to donate space for us in their building in downtown Edwardsvivlle. They asked for nothing in return, but we offered to tithe 10% of our proceeds for the use of the space to cover rent, utilities, maintenance & upkeep, etc. Restore Decor was blessed to use that space until 2023 and honored that agreement with them.
