Rescue
We collect chairs and solid old furniture that still have life left in them.
Rescued furniture. Restored futures.
One thousand and one chairs. One thousand and one chances to do some good.
1001 Chairs finds forgotten chairs and old furniture before they hit the curb, restores them with care, sells them locally, and turns the proceeds into support for refuge homes, refugee homes, and young people who need a safer place to land.
0001
The first chair is just the beginning.
Every restored piece carries a number, a story, and a purpose.
Restore
Cabinet makers, carpenters, volunteers, and eventually youth participants help bring each piece back.
Return
Sales support refuge homes, refugee homes, and programs for young people rebuilding their lives.
Built for dignity, not landfill.
Furniture should not die on the sidewalk.
Old chairs are not garbage. They are design, labour, wood, memory, and usefulness. 1001 Chairs gives them a second life — and uses that second life to help people get one too.
