Well, I got the ball rolling today and made some contacts with a few organizations that may distribute the furnishings I build. I might even get lucky and get some materials donated for it.
Better quality hardwood would be nice, but just nice straight 2x lumber mostly free of knots is fine as well.
I post a bit to various woodworking forums and beginning to find some others willing to join in. There are a lot of people who do woodworking who have plenty of furniture at home who will make stuff to give away as well. There's a possibility of getting a nationwide group together for this. It's not going to significantly change the world, but it can really help people who are in need.
