Habitat For Humanity International Inc

Operation and management of restore in direct support of the affordable housing program. The purpose of the restore is to raise funds for our affordable home building program and also to serve as an ambassador for the habitat mission. Sometimes a donor or customer to the restore first learns about the habitat mission and our local affiliate work in this manner. Many times these individuals become regular volunteers and/or donors to the program. The restore also serves the local community which is largely comprised of low-income households in that the restore sells donated building materials, home furnishings and appliances at prices that are on average 50-75% of what these items would cost new at retail price. The restore also provides an opportunity to recycle and reuse-saving landfill space and limits the impact on the environment.
