Habitat ReStore » Volunteering
If you love prowling the aisles at Home Depot, enjoy fixing things, or just want to help recycle building materials while supporting adequate housing, the Habitat ReStore needs you. Sales, display, cleanup of donations, merchandising and all other "jobs" are completely volunteer efforts. With few paid staff, the Habitat ReStore can use your help. Be part of HFHMC's premier recycler of new and used building materials, tools and appliances. Call (309) 454-6047, or just dress down and drop by the store, to get involved. The Habitat ReStore is always looking for volunteers to work in the store. Call us at (309) 454-6047 for more information. Volunteers clean donations, set up displays, help customers . . . and anything else that needs doing!

The Role You Invent: No time frame. This volunteer will do what needs done.
