Welcome to DuPage Habitat for Humanity ReStore
VOLUNTEER
DONATE
DuPage Habitat for Humanity introduces it's brand new ReStore,
a facility dedicated to helping the environment by repurposing
household items and construction materials that would otherwise
be thrown out and end up in a landfill. Habitat for Humanity ReStore's main goal is to
reuse, recycle and repurpose.
Habitat for Humanity ReStore collects, examines and sorts donated items and then sells these
materials to the general public at greatly reduced prices. All profit from the
sales funds the DuPage Habitat mission.
Every year Illinois landfills accumulate over
15 million tons of waste, which is then replaced by new products.
DuPage Habitat for Humanity ReStore will give the public an opportunity to donate usable products
to be resold at reduced prices to homeowners and contractors.
According to estimates, one ReStore is capable of collecting, selling, and respectively
diverting anywhere from 30 to 220 tons of material from landfills annually.
DuPage Habitat for Humanity ReStore has an immediate need for volunteers. We are looking for volunteers to help out with
the following: Cashiers, Stock Help, Customer Service and Drivers.
We are asking volunteers to work flexible, 4 hour shifts at the ReStore location from Wednesdays through Saturdays.
The shifts are from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and 2 p.m. to 6 p.m.
Volunteers able to work both morning and afternoon shifts would be greatly appreciated.
If you can help out we ask that you attend a short volunteer orientation meeting held at the ReStore location.
Meetings are held on Wednesdays at 4 p.m. and Fridays at 9.a.m.
