Unwanted bedroom furniture? Good Condition? Consider giving it to "Bed Bugz"

I recently moved to the Island from Langley and we had a group there that took in good condition bedroom furniture/sets/decor and helped do room makeovers for kids-teens. We got donations of paint, furniture, decor, money to buy things we needed and used that to surprise a child or teen with a new bedroom. We created one for a teen that had never had her own bedroom and after finding a new apartment we were able to work from midnight until 5am doing up the room so when they went to move in that morning she had this beautiful room with pink and white tulle draped down the walls, a sitting area with a ton of pillows, a beautiful white antique day bed frame donated by a lovely lady.We painted the walls pink and put probably a hundred of these different sized circle mirrors all over the walls. And a gorgeous desk that just about matched the bed. She was in tears and that girl even now 3 years later still sends me updates telling me how she loved coming home after school knowing she could go flop down onto her "pillow Party Area" and do her homework there. She hopes to become a social worker. And Ive noticed the lack of low cost housing here, its insane how little there is in appropriate housing, PERIOD! So I thought maybe I could try it here, get a few helpers. I have a garage to store items in so they'll be safe, i have all my painting supply stuff from before so all good there. But anything you think would be suitable for a childs-teens room would be great. No nick nacks just because they take up space and add a lot of work for volunteers. I work part-full time on call, so please be patient if I dont answer emails right away. Anyone who would like to help is welcome to contact me!
