Mission and programs · 2025

Mission

Humble Design changes lives and communities by custom designing and fully furnishing home interiors for individuals, families and veterans emerging from homelessness.

Activities or mission (Part I)

Humble Design changes lives communities by designing and furnishing homes for individuals families veterans emerging from homelessness

  • Entering housing is an important step in the journey out of homelessness, but not enough to solve the problem. Humble Design ends the revolving door of homelessness by creating homes where families can find peace, strength, and hope. We are the conduit for the community to donate their gently used household furnishings, and decor items directly to someone who will benefit from it most. In 2025, we served over 1,550 people who had secured housing after emerging from homelessness. We turned 560 empty house/apartments into personal, welcoming spaces. With our services 98% remain stably housed within a year. Families we dont serve are 10 times more likely to return to homelessness within a year.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
