Columbia ReStore

Habitat for Humanity of the Chesapeake proudly owns and operates five ReStores throughout Central Maryland, which sell new and gently used furniture, home goods, building materials, appliances, and more at discounted prices.  

• Every Habitat Chesapeake ReStore sale supports our operating costs so donor funds can go directly to building and rehabilitating homes.  
• ReStore sales account for nearly 30% of Habitat Chesapeake's revenue.  
• ReStores divert 3.6 million pounds of waste from landfills. 

Habitat for Humanity of the Chesapeake relies on the efforts of our volunteers who donate their time and energy.  

Volunteer opportunities are available Tuesday through Saturday from 10:30am - 5:30pm.

At our ReStores, anyone 14 or 15 years old can volunteer with a chaperone. Volunteers 16 and older are not required to have a chaperone present. 

Whether you enjoy interacting with the public or prefer working behind the scenes, chances are that we have a volunteer opportunity for you!
