I had been homeless for 16 mos. I finally found a place to live a couple of weeks ago. I'm 60 yrs old and I don't have one piece of furniture. I need a couch, end tables, a kitchen table and chairs. How would I be able to get a furniture voucher? I live in Blaine, Ohio.

Try the Furniture Bank of Central Ohio. furniturebankcoh.org/
You can also try your local United Way. I hope I picked the right one:
You may want to consider asking at local churches or synagogues or mosques and see if they can help with furniture or volunteers to help you get found pieces to your place.
The challenge with free furniture is getting it to your place, hopefully you can cobble together sources and delivery with these suggestions.
Sending prayers and blessings and an amazing new start for you! Take care and post back your solutions and progress!!
