Co-op High School Student Co-op Post-Secondary Student
Job Description
The ReStores are owned and operated by Habitat for Humanity Heartland Ontario. Our shelves are stocked with new and gently used renovation supplies donated to us by homeowners and businesses. Everything is available at seriously discounted prices. Because we constantly receive new inventory from a variety of generous supporters, every trip to the ReStore offers a unique opportunity to discover a fantastic deal, a one-of-a-kind item, or the missing piece in your design inspiration. The money raised from the sale of items at the ReStores pays for the overhead costs of operating Habitat for Humanity Heartland Ontario. By covering our own costs, we are able to keep our promise that every dollar donated to Habitat for Humanity will go directly towards building homes for families in need.
