House to Home
for survivors
need help after wildfire loss?
House to Home is a program designed to help families, who lost their homes in recent wildfires, with furniture and layout support to make a house feel like home.
We’re deeply grateful to our friends at A Sense of Home for welcoming wildfire-impacted families into their Disaster Relief Program.
Their team has been generous with their time, resources, and care, helping our House to Home families rebuild comfort faster than we ever could alone.
