Reclaimed craft and community purpose
At Hope For New Beginnings Foundation, Inc. in Lima, Ohio, we keep furniture out of landfills by turning discarded items into beautiful, functional household staples. Through hands-on vocational training, our volunteers and trainees learn essential skills—including sanding, woodwork, painting, and upholstery sewing. These revitalized pieces either support local families in our Free Store or find loving homes through our Thrift Store.
Explore our refurbished creations
From an old worn-out dresser disassembled and reimagined into a cozy entryway bench with custom cushions, to an astonishing 1919 Cornish Piano Company organ restored with its original pedal carpet, every project saves history and waste from the landfill.
Help us transform more lives and furniture
Every piece in our showcase is made possible by generous community donations and dedicated volunteers. Schedule a free pickup for your gently used furniture, join our team to learn refurbishment skills, or come visit our stores to support Lima families today.
