About the ReStore

A Habitat for Humanity ReStore serves as a dynamic hub with a dual purpose, seamlessly blending sustainability and community impact. Functioning as more than just a retail space, the ReStore acts as a vital fundraising arm for the broader mission of Habitat for Humanity. It operates by accepting and reselling donated new and gently used home improvement items, furniture, appliances, and building materials. This not only promotes the ethos of reuse and recycling but also provides the community with access to quality, affordable goods. The proceeds generated from ReStore sales directly contribute to funding Greater Green Bay Habitat for Humanity's initiatives, particularly in the realm of affordable housing. As a result, the ReStore becomes a powerful nexus where community members can both contribute to and benefit from a sustainable, charitable ecosystem, embodying the core values of Habitat for Humanity.
