Are you creative? Do you enjoy working with different types of materials when making art? The folks at the Cary ReStore have a special place in their hearts for two little monsters, made for them by some local children out of materials purchased from the ReStore.

This blog post was written by our Development and Communications intern, Chauncey Bowden, who happens to be an expert on small spaces, as she currently lives in a little Raleigh apartment. Chauncey is leaving us next week to finish her degree in Philosophy of Law from N.C. State.

All Habitat Wake ReStores will be CLOSED on Tuesday, July 19th for an all-staff build day. We're excited to spend this time together as a team, physically enacting our mission to build affordable housing in Wake County. We will see you back in the stores on Wednesday!

   Come join the Habitat Wake team! We have two positions currently open:

Larry Diener is a Senior Project Manager and Operational Excellence Specialist at Seqirus in Holly Springs and also an upcycle guru. We had the pleasure of meeting him at a local Earth Day event and he showed us some of his past projects.

  The Wake ReStore team has been hard at work collecting donations of electronics and refurbishing them for resale. We are excited to announce that we will now have a regular eStore in the Raleigh ReStore location.

The warm weather is here, and it’s the perfect time of year to find new ways to reuse and re-purpose materials! DIY projects don’t have to be expensive or intimidating, and shopping at the ReStore makes it even easier.
