HOW IT MAKES A DIFFERENCE

Our stores provide funding for EIGHT extra homes EACH year. Without volunteers we couldn't keep the stores running, nor the funds to support much-needed, additional low-income housing.

DESCRIPTION

Come help out in one of our ReStores! They are home improvement thrift stores that offer a retail environment for volunteers. These stores provide low cost items for community members, an avenue to recycle things that would otherwise go into a landfill and fund our home building programs.  Activities include helping customers, receiving donations, organizing items on the floor and cleaning/repairs.  Every day is different!


ITEMS NEEDED

Make sure to print out a minor waiver and have a parent/guardian sign it. 

Volunteers must wear sturdy, closed-toe shoes (tennis shoes are fine but no crocs or flip-flops). Dress is casual with a t-shirt and jeans or t-shirt and shorts in the summer.

The ReStores can be dirty and dusty, so chances are you will leave here less pristine than when you came!


SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS

must be at least 14 years of age.
