COVID-19 Important Update

UPDATED June 15, 2021

Our ReStore is now open for in-person shopping. In compliance with the provincial mandate, masks will be required at all times during your visit. The ReStore will be operating at 15% capacity in the store as mandated, thank you for your patience.

Please note that donation drop-offs will continue to be accepted at the ReStore (during scheduled hours). Customers are asked to shut their vehicle’s engine off in our donation bay and to wear masks when dropping off donations. Please note that all donations must be in good condition (free of stains, rips, tears, breakage, etc.) and from a smoke-free home. For more information on which items the Habitat ReStore gladly accepts and which items we’re unable to accept, please visit the ReStore section of our page.

Thank you for your patience as we have limited resources and it will take some time to work through the queue of pick-ups received during shutdown.

Construction of our Habitat home in Stayner will begin later this summer so that we can help families build strength, stability and independence through affordable homeownership. Let us know how you can be involved!

We’re Building in Stayner!

The planning is underway for our 2021 build which will be located in Stayner.

While Covid forced us to put our build on pause for this year, we are working towards the building of a home in Stayner for 2021. We'd love you to be involved. Fill out a Volunteer Registration Form today to get more information as it happens and stay in the know!

Fundraising, family selection, construction committee, food & volunteer committees - all things we need to organize for the next build. Hope to have your help!
