Our mission is to provide comfortable and functional furniture, kitchenware, linens, bath items, and decor to individuals and families experiencing difficult life circumstances. We are here to improve the home living environment of orphaned and fostered children, veterans, widows and widowers, single parents with children, and those affected by poverty, homelessness, domestic violence, and hardships.
Our vision is that all individuals and families experiencing hardship and difficult life circumstances will:
have access to home furnishing that meets their specific home living needs;
enjoy an improved home living environment;
experience a better quality of life; receive renewed lives; and gain rest, recovery, and restored HOPE!
Please help Hope By Design raise funds to help families transitioning from homelessness and shelters. Simply purchase a $20 Dave & Buster’s Power Card and 50% will be donated to HBD! The cards are the perfect gift for all ages and are good at any Dave & Buster’s location.

"I remember feeling excited and hopeless all at once when I got the keys to my new home. My then husband abandoned me, and I was pregnant, sleeping on an air mattress with my toddler beside me. I was just grateful to no longer be outside in the cold. Hope By Design saved us! I am now a community entrepreneur, after successfully completing Kennesaw State University's ACE (Aspiring Community Entrepreneur) program. I am a Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA), I am a Canine Companions Advocate (service dogs for the disabled) and most recently, I became a Respect Institute of Georgia Speaker. I have been stable in my home for many years with the support of Hope by Design. And I've been able to launch my own nonprofit organization, Comeback Kids."
"She absolutely loves her new place and the furnishings you selected for her."
"Oh my word! It is absolutely beautiful. You guys are truly amazing. They are so happy and proud of the house. She especially liked her cookware in the kitchen as she is a big cook. When I was there, there was already a big pot of rice on the stove. I love the way you set up the dining room table so beautifully and the pictures and the back deck. It was just great. We appreciate you guys so much."
"It's so beautiful! I absolutely love it! I can't express how grateful I am."
"We are really enjoying it and are so appreciative of everything. The designers really put everything together nicely and turned our place of survival into a home. I am very thankful for everything you and your organization have done."
"I'm loving the furniture and the kids are too. Thank you very much."
"I'm very fortunate for my furniture and you decorating my home. The kids and I came from a domestic violence shelter. We successfully fled domestic violence. Life has just been hard. So when I see our home; I can't tell you how victorious that made me and the kids feel. Also: special, loved and supported. The timing was wonderful because I was so beaten down and tired. The home is absolutely beautiful!!!!"
“Thank you all for everything! The furniture and belongings in the home are just absolutely beautiful. I love it all! To come from a shelter to a beautiful home that's already for us I can't even explain it. We had garbage bags of our belongings in storage. It really helped to come home to furniture after trips to storage. So thank you."
