Habitat ReStore Turns Donations Into Homes and Hope

The Habitat for Humanity ReStore, in Ann Arbor, invites the community to shop, donate and volunteer in support of affordable housing. Located on Jackson Road, the ReStore is a nonprofit home improvement outlet that sells gently used furniture, appliances, cabinets, lighting, flooring, doors, windows and more at deeply discounted prices.

Eighty-five percent of the merchandise is donated by local families and businesses. These donations help divert usable items from landfills while generating funding for Habitat for Humanity of Huron Valley’s mission: building and renovating homes for families in need throughout Washtenaw County. Every purchase and donation contributes to this effort, turning basic household goods into the building blocks of stability and dignity.

From DIYers and students furnishing apartments to treasure hunters and environmentally conscious shoppers, the ReStore offers an ever-changing inventory of finds at accessible prices. Volunteers help keep the store running smoothly and make a direct impact on the community, gaining new skills while giving back.

Donations are accepted during business hours and may be eligible for a tax deduction. Large items can be picked up by request. The ReStore also welcomes group volunteer days for businesses and organizations looking to make a difference.

Location: 6241 Jackson Rd., Ann Arbor. For more information, call 734-276-0599 or visit h4h.org/restore.
