What Is ReStore?
Habitat ReStores are retail stores that accept donations of quality new and gently used building materials, as well as furniture, appliances and home accessories, and resell them to the public.
Shopping at a Habitat ReStore is a socially conscious decision, as the money generated is used to fund local Habitat for Humanity home building projects and operations. Proceeds from ReStore support local families through Habitat for Humanity Camrose’s affordable homeownership program.
It’s also an environmentally conscious decision, as much of what is sold is product that is new, gently used or customer returns that might otherwise end up in a landfill.
By the numbers:
- There are over 100 Habitat ReStores across Canada.
- In 2017, sales at Habitat ReStores in Canada were $67.5 million, allowing local Habitats to partner with even more families in need of decent and affordable housing.
- In 2016, Habitat ReStores diverted an estimated 40,000 tons of product from landfills.
