What is The Green Chair Project?
The Green Chair Project is a 501(c)(3) non-profit created to be a donation receptacle for your gently-used household furnishings that can be reused by those in need throughout our community.
Nearly 80,000 residents (8.8%) of Wake County are living at or below the poverty level, unable to purchase even basic items for their homes.Referrals from local nonprofit agencies help identify those in need, who may benefit from a hand-up to establishing new lives in a welcoming home.
According to the EPA, furniture accounts for over 9 million tons of waste in our landfills.Through The Green Chair Project, the Raleigh community now has a meaningful way to recycle their donated furnishings directly in to the hands of those in need filling homes that would otherwise be without, while at the same time reducing waste in our landfills.
