At Urban Furniture Outlet, our community is at the heart of everything we do. Whether we’re helping you furnish your dream living room or supporting our Delaware neighbors, we believe in taking care of our local communities.
This season, we’ve made it easier than ever to give back by hosting two vital community collection drives right inside our showrooms. Whether you are shopping for new furniture or just passing by, we invite you to stop in and help us make a difference!

🧸 Marine Corps Toys for Tots Collection Drive

Timeline: Now through December 20, 2026
We are proud to serve as an official Toys for Tots donation drop location at our Dover showroom! Every child deserves the magic of a new toy during the holidays, and your generous gift helps ensure children across Kent County wake up with a smile.
What to Bring:
-
New, unwrapped toys for children of all ages (infants through young teens)

Board games, books, activity sets, and sports equipment

Note: Please leave items unwrapped so the Toys for Tots team can sort them by age group.

Peanut butter & nut butters
