The Potter's Hands is a ministry of The Chapel specifically centered around meeting the tangible needs of families in WNY. Our mission is to be the hands and feet of Jesus by shining Christ's love and compassion on our community.
Donate Furniture
We thank you for your generosity and heart for service. By donating your gently used furniture, you help us share Christ’s love and bring dignity and hope to families in need.
Furniture donations may be dropped off at our warehouse on Thursdays from 9:00am -2:30pm. If another time is more convenient, please call us at (716) 222 - 0791 to schedule a drop-off.
Because many of the families we serve live in smaller apartments, we are unable to accept larger items such as armoires, entertainment centers, sectional sofas, large buffets, or king-size beds.
Please review our Items We Accept and Items We Cannot Accept lists before bringing your donation. Thank you for helping us provide practical care to families in our community.
