Bassett Furniture helps welcome home domestic violence victim

Irvine, CA - 10/23/2014

Orange County non-profit Human Options delivers safe haven and life changing programs to more than 200 abused women and their families each year.

They even completed the makeover with a new coat of paint!

A New Vision for ReVision Family Home

Sprucing Up Spaces Shared by Homeless Families Living in Boston’s Largest Neighborhood

Boston, Mass. - 7/17/2014

Less than six months after surprising a Boston-area charity with a makeover, Bassett Furniture was back in town to do it again. This time, the Bassett team showed up at ReVision Family Home, a transitional shelter that houses 22 homeless women and their families in Boston’s diverse Dorchester neighborhood. The goal was to freshen up the common living areas and create comfortable spaces for the women who participate in programs that help them establish self-sufficiency. Since many of the residents have experienced severe trauma, it was important to Bassett’s design consultants to incorporate warm colors and inviting fabrics. In addition to donating new furniture and decor, Bassett also helped with the disposal of the shelter’s existing furniture which was in very poor condition. Many ReVision Family Home employees, volunteers and residents were also present to take part in the transformation that was designed with their needs in mind. Appreciation could be seen on their faces as they gathered for a group photo to mark the end of a productive day and another Bassett Furniture makeover.

A Home While Loved Ones Heal

Bassett Furniture Brings Comfort to Military Families During Treatment

Silver Spring, Md. - 7/14/2014

For military families whose loved ones are being treated for major injuries or illnesses, nearby comfort at no cost can go a long way. Thanks to Fisher House Foundation, families of wounded warriors and veterans receive free housing at major military and VA medical centers during treatment. Each Fisher House residence makes it easier for hospital visits and eliminates lodging expenses. However, at the Walter Reed - Forest Glen Fisher House, the wear and tear of housing seven military families at the same time was taking a toll on the property. So, despite overseeing the opening of a new store, the Bassett Furniture team in Rockville, Md. simultaneously took on the challenge of making over several rooms in the house. Along with Bassett Furniture executives, they visited the home where they met with the residents and presented them with redesigned rooms - complete with new furniture, artwork and accessories. The end result was a more comfortable and inviting space specifically designed for service members and their families.

Center for Youth and Family

A New “Chill” Room for Little Rock’s Children

Little Rock, AR - 5/1/2014

As home to 18 children, Little Rock’s only emergency youth shelter is constantly filled with an abundance of energy. That same energy can take a toll on a residence—especially the furniture—so Bassett decided to help the hardworking team who are responsible for running the facility. The shelter, which is operated by Centers for Youth & Families, has many needs, but Bassett chose to do what they do best which is create a comfortable and stylish space that meets the needs of the family that uses it. In this case, the family was large, so Bassett designers opted to go with a large sectional and other functional pieces that could be utilized in the shelter’s community room where the kids spend much of their time. While the kids were in school, Bassett designers and executives dove in and tackled the transformation of the room. When the kids arrived home, they were met with a makeover complete with custom an artwork made by a Bassett employee. The kids immediately begin to stake their claims on the sofa cushions and investigate the storage features of their new furniture. Bassett was so inspired by their visit to Centers for Youth & Families—which, like Bassett, has been around for more than 100 years—that they’ve decided to return and makeover another room.

Bassett Furniture for Veterans

Bassett Furniture Helps Veterans during Westchester’s 100 Day Challenge

Westchester County, NY - 3/27/2014

Two veterans in Westchester County are sleeping much better at night knowing that they’re waking up in a nice warm bed with a roof over their head. After struggling with homelessness, Doug, a U.S. Air Force veteran, and Dennis, a U.S. Marine Corps veteran, were thrilled to receive housing as part of a countywide 100 Day Challenge to house and employ veterans. But both men could do very little “living” in their unfurnished and empty apartments. That’s when Bassett Furniture stepped in and donated everything from dressers to bedding, dishes, mattresses and more. Bassett executives and employees visited both men and did back-to-back makeovers in their apartments. Bassett was honored to serve Doug and Dennis, who have both sacrificed a great deal to serve their country, and was delighted to hear that their donation had inspired others in the community—both businesses and individuals—to help veterans in need.

A Fresh Start

Transforming spaces for Boston teen moms.

Boston, MA - 01/30/14

With cameras and a crowd looking on, a group of young girls relaxed on new red sofas. All of the girls were teenage mothers, and they were testing out the new furniture that had just been donated by Bassett Furniture. When Bassett learned of Just-A-Start House and its independent living program in Boston for pregnant and parenting young girls, they knew the house-which is home to 12 young mothers and 13 children-probably needed new furniture. Just-A-Start house graciously accepted Bassett's gift to makeover its community living area and counseling room which had an institutional look until Bassett's designers got their hands on it. The finishing touches were just as meaningful as the bigger pieces of furniture that Bassett's design team picked out: thoughtful Bassett designers left plenty of books, DVDs, games and toys to be enjoyed by the children under the watchful eye of their young mothers.

Farmhouse Makeover

Returning some charm to a girls group home.

Westport, CT - 01/17/14

A 100-year-old farmhouse that has been around almost as long as Bassett Furniture looks more than a little different after a surprise visit from Bassett employees and executives. The house is home to young women in crisis who are cared for by Project Return-a well-known Connecticut non-profit that provides a safe, structured and nurturing environment for girls who are unable to live with their families. Bassett designers focused on creating an inviting and comforting living room where the girls could have their weekly therapy meetings and hang out after school. They also revamped a rundown room that serves as the bedroom for house parents who take turns working the night shift. Project Return was incredibly grateful and showed up to support Bassett later that night at the grand opening of their nearby store in Westport.

A Beacon of Hope

Furnishing a comfortable place for the homeless.

Annapolis, MD - 01/16/14

For 25 years, Light House has been serving the homeless community in Annapolis. Less than 24 hours before opening their first store in Annapolis, Bassett Furniture executives and employees were at Light House swapping sofas and other new furniture for smiles and homemade brownies. After taking a tour of the 24,000 square foot facility that provides emergency shelter and transitional housing for homeless individuals and families, Bassett knew they had partnered with an outstanding agency. With the new furniture, Light House was able to furnish two family apartments and a large common area where friendships were formed between the Light House team and Bassett crew. Bassett didn't show up empty-handed, and they didn't leave empty-handed either: residents of Light House, who have the opportunity to participate in an on-site culinary program and work for the shelter's catering business, made sure to gift their guests with their famous chocolate fudgy brownies.

Special Delivery

Christmas comes early for ACH children in Fort Worth.

Fort Worth, TX - 12/05/13

The weather called for a winter storm, but that didn't stop Bassett Furniture from making a big donation and dropping by several Fort Worth residences for at-risk youth. Founded in 1915, ACH Child and Family Services offers Tarrant County's only emergency youth shelter and long-term residential care for runaways and homeless or abandoned children. On an unusually cold Texas morning, Bassett executives and employees delivered enough new furniture to help furnish four houses managed by the ACH Residential Services Program. The new rooms were set up and waiting when the kids-unaware of Bassett's gift-came home from school to find that Christmas had come early!
