Episode Summary

Damien Haussling passed away on July 15, 2024. This is a rebroadcast of his appearance on The Best Kind podcast from 2021. Rest in power, Damien.

Have you ever moved into a new place and had no furniture to sit on or sleep on? We often take having somewhere to relax or rest our heads for granted. Worse still, have you ever been at a point with no place to call your own?

In the first episode of The Best Kind, I talk with Damien Haussling (“HOUSE-ling”). He co-founded the Baltimore Furniture Bank with some friends a few years ago. They’re now distributing furniture to low-income households and families who have escaped homelessness in the Baltimore area.

I talk with Damien about his own experience with homelessness, how he recovered, and how you can support the first furniture bank of its kind in Baltimore. Our chat is on YouTube…
