What We Do
We are a furniture bank in Central Indiana that provides gently-used furniture to families and individuals in need. Furniture is a quality-of-life necessity but furnishing even a one-bedroom apartment costs more than most formerly displaced individuals and families can afford. With your help we lighten or eliminate that burden, freeing clients to focus on moving forward. “When more people are able to live a better life because they no longer have to struggle every day, your community is going to improve."

Get Involved
The Mustard Seed of Central Indiana offers many ways to get involved in our organization. We encourage you to contribute in the ways that are doable and meaningful to you.
Donate Furniture
Between January 1 and December 31, 2024, we provided 206 individuals and families a total of 2168 pieces of furniture. All donated by people like you. Please consider being one of them.
Volunteer
Volunteering with us makes a HUGE difference in the lives of formerly displaced individuals and families in Central Indiana and there are many ways to help out as a volunteer: laundry, furniture repair, help at events.
Give a Gift
100% of your generous donations directly support our furniture program. We don’t hire people just to raise funds - the same people that schedule deliveries and pick ups, keep track of furniture as it comes in and goes out, and make sure bedding is washed and ready to donate do that too.
