Habitat for Humanity celebrates anniversary with ReStore sale
Greater Rochester Habitat for Humanity’s ReStore in BayTowne Plaza is celebrating its first anniversary with a special sale Friday and Saturday.
The nonprofit home improvement and donation center is offering a sale of 50 to 75 percent off donated items.
At ReStore, people can donate furniture, lightly used construction materials, clothing, and more. Habitat for Humanity recycles and up-cycles items, and directs the proceeds to help support its mission of bringing people together to build homes, communities, and hope.
President and CEO Matt Flanigan told News 8 what shoppers can find when visiting the BayTowne Plaza location.
“It’s the kind of place you want to come when you have a little time to explore,” he said. “If you’re in a hurry, you’ll still probably do okay … and recognize what we’re selling is donated products, so it’s going to change again and again. Come back next week, come back next month, it’s going to look different then when you were here last.”
In addition to the sale, all ReStore shoppers are invited to a free cookout from 12:00 – 2:00 p.m. Saturday.
