I ❤️ TMS!

The Mustard Seed is a community asset, impacting and uplifting thousands of people every single year by providing furniture and clothing to those in transition. Our mission is to help rebuild the lives of those emerging from crisis. Serving over 1000 families each year takes the dedication of our staff and volunteers, and the commitment of those in the community willing to give.

A monthly donation to The Mustard Seed will help us serve children and families in the community without a bed to sleep on, a table to eat at, or a sofa to sit on. Your tax-deductible monthly gift of any amount will ensure that those in need are able to make their house into a home.

Share your excitement and commitment to The Mustard Seed with a bumper magnet EXCLUSIVE to our monthly giving program!
