ReStore
Volunteer Opportunities
Paterson Habitat’s ReStore® opens this spring and will be located at 415 Hamburg Turnpike, Wayne, NJ 07470. Our ReStore will help us expand our ability to build homes in the City of Paterson. We will sell gently used or overstock building materials, cabinetry, appliances, furniture and home décor donated by businesses, contractors and individuals.

Who can volunteer?
Anyone over 16 for most positions so it is a great opportunity for community service credit at school or college. And if you have always wanted to volunteer for Habitat but don’t know how to swing a hammer then ReStore is the place for you (no outside work).

What is a ReStore
While every ReStore outlet is a little different, most focus on home improvement goods like furniture, home accessories, building materials and appliances. ReStore resale outlets accept donated goods which are sold to the general public at a fraction of the retail price. The proceeds help local Habitat affiliates fund the construction of Habitat homes within their communities.
Promoting reuse and recycling
ReStore resale outlets provide an environmentally and socially responsible way to keep good, reusable materials out of the waste stream while providing funding for Habitat’s community improvement work.
