ReStore Your Home

Shopping at the ReStore is a great way to support our community!

Habitat for Humanity is a non-profit organization that helps families access affordable housing, but it also operates ReStores, which sell donated furniture, appliances, household items and building materials.

The first ReStore was opened by five volunteers in Winnipeg in 1991. The idea caught on, and there are now more than 1,000 locations across six countries.

Profits from ReStores help fund Habitat housing projects, and donated items are given a second chance instead of ending up in the landfill, so it’s a win-win!

Every ReStore is different, and its inventory is constantly changing. Some of the items you may find include windows, doors, paint, hardware, lumber, tools and appliances.

The Grey Bruce ReStores are also great for anyone who enjoys restoring or upcycling furniture, as you’ll often find “diamonds in the rough” waiting to be transformed into one-of-a-kind creations.

If you haven’t visited the ReStore before, it’s well worth checking out! You never know what you might discover, and every purchase helps support our community.
