Twin Cities Habitat for Humanity

Twin Cities Habitat for Humanity (www.tchabitat.org) builds homes in partnership with families who demonstrate need and willingness to work with Habitat for Humanity by helping to construct their own housing.

What I think is fascinating about Habitat for Humanity is that they have retail outlets named "Restore" where quality new and like-new building materials are sold at discounted prices. The ReStore sells vendor return, scratch and dent, over stock, and items donated by individual donors. They have 4 retail outlets in Minnesota, and 400 retail outlets across the nation and the ReStore platform has been very successful.

You can donate your unwanted/old household items (ex. washer, doors, lighting fixtures, etc.) to a local retail outlet I like the way Habitat for Humanity has developed a national platform to recycle, reduce, and reuse.

The purpose of the ReStore is to generate revenue to fund Habitat homes, along with providing low cost building materials to the public, reducing the waste of building materials, and to expand the spectrum of donations.

The Minnesota or Minneapolis 'Restore' locations and driving directions can be found at www.tchabitat.org.
