The Chicago Furniture Bank (CFB) serves individuals and families across the Chicagoland area transitioning from homelessness, fleeing domestic violence, or lacking essential household furnishings. CFB collaborates with over 550 social service agencies to identify and assist those most in need with handpicked furniture packages. As one of the largest furniture banks in the country, the CFB believes every person should be able to sleep on a bed, share a meal at a table, and do homework on a desk. The Financial Analyst VISTA will enhance the financial sustainability of CFB by developing financial models, tracking cash flows, and supporting capital campaign planning. This role will ensure accurate financial reporting for donors and grantors, optimize resource allocation, and strengthen CFB¿s capacity to serve more families in need.
