The ReStore has surpassed $5 million in sales in 12 years. Net profits have provided funding on over 40 partner family houses.
When Habitat McLean County opened the ReStore in 2010, our goals were to raise money to build safe, decent, and affordable houses,
provide home improvement and building materials for great prices and recycle items to keep them out of landfills.
Executive Director Jim Walters is amazed at the ReStore's success. When he considers the bargain prices, he says, "reaching $5 million in sales represents a lot of transactions. It also shows how hard our ReStore team hustles every day."
“Most importantly," he continues, "the ReStore remains an essential funding source for our affiliate to provide decent, affordable housing for our partner families. Thank you for your support of our mission through ReStore donations, purchases, and volunteering,"
In its 35-year history, our affiliate has provided homes for 186 partner families, which represents over 700 people, 500 of whom are children. We'll partner with six more families in 2021. We've served dozens more through our exterior home repair program
The ReStore is open Tues-Sat 10AM-6PM for donations and shopping.
