Thank you for helping Jimmy. He spent 18 months in a nursing home and it was not fun. He has an apartment now but little furniture. You are making a miracle.

I wanted to take the time to thank you all at Household Goods for all you have done for my homeless clients. I have used Household Goods almost exclusively to help my clients furnish and supply their new apartments. Each time I have brought a client to you, your personnel have been exceedingly helpful and friendly.
 
The selection of furniture and other supplies is wonderful. Everything is in great condition and the selection helps my clients feel as though they really have a choice in what their homes will look like. This is so important to their self-esteem and in their moving forward in their lives.
 
Keep up the good work! I look forward to continuing to refer clients to you.
