Habitat for Humanity to Break Ground on New ReStore Location
Members of the media are invited to attend the official groundbreaking ceremony for the new Habitat for Humanity of Walton County ReStore location in Santa Rosa Beach on Wednesday, Feb. 5 at 9 a.m. Following the groundbreaking, attendees are invited to a celebratory brunch at Grayton Beer Brewpub at 10 a.m.
Guests attending are asked to RSVP to: JL@waltoncountyhabitat.org
Who: Habitat for Humanity of Walton County has invited community partners, board members, staff, volunteers and county commissioners to break ground at the site of the new Restore.
What: Habitat ReStores are independently owned reuse stores operated by local Habitat for Humanity organizations that accept donations and sell home improvement items to the public at fraction of the retail price. The donation centers sell new and gently used furniture, appliances, home goods, building materials and more. The profits from the sales go directly to the funding of the local Habitat for Humanity. The new Restore location is set to open late 2020.
Where: 2260 U.S. Hwy. 98 West
The ceremony will be held on the northside of the highway between Publix and Veteran’s Parkway. Complimentary transportation to and from the groundbreaking site will be provided
by GoVetted. Attendees should park on the west side of the South Walton Publix’s parking lot.
When: Wednesday, Feb. 5 at 9 a.m.
Why: The new ReStore building will be 18,500 sq. ft., providing much-needed room for growth. The new facility will consolidate the donation center, warehouse and retail departments, administration and construction center all in one location. Donations that currently sit out in the elements will be housed in the 12,000 sq. ft. warehouse, therefore reducing loss, and providing the opportunity to expand their inventory and greatly increase Habitat for Humanity’s ability to resell, reuse and recycle donations.
Habitat for Humanity is part of a global, nonprofit housing organization operated on Christian principles that seeks to put God’s love into action by building homes, communities, and hope. Habitat for Humanity is dedicated to eliminating substandard housing locally, statewide, and worldwide through constructing, rehabilitating and preserving homes; by advocating for fair and just housing policies; and by providing training and access to resources to help families improve their shelter conditions. Habitat for Humanity was founded on the conviction that every man, woman, and child should have a simple, durable place to live in dignity and safety, and that decent shelter in decent communities should be a matter of conscience and action for all.
Habitat ReStore is the place Walton County area homeowners get quality construction materials and household items at bargain prices. Your contributions to Habitat ReStore means materials are kept in use instead of thrown into the landfill. Donate materials, and household items to ReStore and avoid hauling costs, plus receive a tax deduction.
