About ReStore
Habitat ReStore accepts contributions of new and used materials from individuals, contractors and retail building supply stores. Contributors avoid hauling costs and receive a tax deduction, since Habitat For Humanity is a 501(c)3 charitable organization.
The merchandise at our warehouse deeply discounted . This gives homeowners an opportunity to maintain their property. When individual property is maintained, neighborhoods are stronger, crime rates decrease, and overall pride rises in the community. The entire city becomes a better place to live.
The profits from our sales are used to fund Habitat For Humanity's mission of providing quality homes for low-income families and eliminating sub-standing housing in our community. To date, Habitat ReStore has contributed more than $800,000 to Habitat for Humanity Kansas City.
