“This is the moment we’ve been waiting for,” said Megan Martin, founder and executive director of Furnish Hope. “After years of helping families create a place to call home, we’re so close to having a permanent home of our own. We’re excited to see the work begin—and even more excited for the families who will walk through these doors.”
After four months of waiting, Furnish Hope’s building permits are officially approved, clearing the way for renovation work to begin shortly at its future home at 355 NE Second Street in Bend. With a move anticipated in three to four months, the organization is closer than ever to opening a permanent space where Central Oregon families can find furniture, household essentials, and hope.
