Keeping Wilson County OFF THE FLOOR
Welcome to FAM Essentials! We are a dedicated 100% Volunteer driven, multi-faith, community organization based in Lebanon, Tennessee, committed to furnishing homes for those overcoming homelessness and supporting foster families and family reunification.
By accepting gently used items and financial contributions to purchase items we provide only as new, such as mattresses & beds, we provide essential furnishings to those in need throughout Wilson County. Together, we can make a difference and help create stable, welcoming homes for families in our community.

Who do we Help?
FAM Essentials is dedicated to addressing two crucial areas in Wilson County, Tennessee:
First, we focus on overcoming homelessness by assisting individuals and families affected by domestic violence, trafficking, tragedy, addiction, mental illness, disabilities, veteran status, and those rehabilitated after imprisonment. Our mission is to furnish entire homes or rooms for those who are starting anew and need support, particularly those who are currently sleeping on the floor or have empty homes.
Second, we concentrate on supporting foster families and facilitating home reunification. We aim to help those who are fostering youth or those in need of furnished spaces to reunite families, after experiencing challenges like those outlined in our first focus area.
