Why Volunteer at the ReStore?

Three things happen when you volunteer at the Habitat ReStore:
- You get to meet new people.
- You help us keep items out of the overflowing landfills.
- Your efforts allow us to contribute more money to Habitat's affordable housing solutions in Richland and Lexington Counties.

The Habitat for Humanity ReStore collects gently used furniture, household items and building material donations and resells them to customers at a reduced cost. Volunteers are needed daily to help unload and process donations, design store displays, provide customer service, and work the checkout area. The ReStore welcome volunteers during any portion of their open hours.
