In support of our homebuilding activity, we operate retail home improvement stores call Habitat ReStore. Our 11 locations sell new and used donated home furnishings, appliance and renovation materials to the public at a fraction of the original price. Revenue generated through ReStore sales help cover the cost to build homes for future Habitat homeowners.
