Brookings Habitat ReStore

Habitat ReStores are independently owned reuse stores operated by local Habitat for Humanity organizations that accept donations and sell home improvement items to the public at a fraction of the retail price.

Profits are used to help build strength, stability, self-reliance, and shelter in local communities and around the world — a good deal for you, your community, and the environment.
