The ReStore prides itself on creating a great work environment for volunteers from all walks of life-the unemployed, students, seniors, homemakers, and everyone in between. Individual and group volunteers, age 16 and older, are needed in all areas of our business.  Volunteers aged 16 and 17 need parent permission via a signature on a waiver form.  Sorry, but we don't allow persons less than 16 years of age to volunteer with us.  Waivers are available on our website, www.foxvalleyrestore.org, or at the store.

What We Do

The ReStore's mission is to raise funds for Habitat for Humanity® by selling donated building materials, furniture, and gently used items needed to build, repair or improve a home. These items are offered to the general public at greatly reduced prices. The profits from these sales go directly to support The Fox Valley Habitat for Humanity in its mission to build affordable housing. 95% of our home building budget (which is funded through generous donations) is dedicated to local housing needs, while 5% funds important global housing projects through Habitat for Humanity International.

Habitat for Humanity is a nonprofit, nondenominational, housing ministry. Habitat welcomes all people - regardless of race, religion, ethnicity, or any other difference. Our goal is to build simple, decent, affordable housing for those who lack adequate shelter.
