Volunteering

 

If you love prowling the aisles at Lowes, enjoy fixing things, or just want to help recycle building materials while supporting adequate housing, the ReStore needs you. Sales, display, cleanup of donations, merchandising and all other "jobs" are completely volunteer efforts. With little paid staff, the ReStore can use your help. Be part of FBHFH's premier recycler of new and used building materials, tools and appliances. Call (281) 403-0700, or just dress down and drop by the store, to get involved. The ReStore is always looking for volunteers, ages 18 and over,  to work in the store. Please wear jeans and closed toe shoes.  Sandals and flipflops are not permitted for safety reasons.  High School groups aged 16 and older should contact the ReStore Manager, John Lopez, directly to set up any volunteer times. Also needed are volunteers with extensive knowledge in plumbing, electrical, heating/venting, etc. that would be willing to teach staff and perhaps conduct monthly workshops. Call us at (281) 403-0700 for more information.
 
Volunteers clean donations, set up displays, help customers, load purchases . . . and anything else that needs doing!
 
While the Habitat ReStore sells many of the products other retail construction and home improvement stores sell, it varies in other aspects like its product selection, variability, etc.  Some of the activities we would like our volunteers to assist in may include, but are not limited to:

• pricing
  
• maintenance of the store
  
• organization of merchandise
  
• inventory (twice a year)
  
• receiving (unloading and loading donated materials and merchandise)
  
• truck runs
  
• data entry
  
• promotions (distribution, mailings, etc.)

If you would like to volunteer with us, please complete the online Registration & Orientation first, then send the ReStore an email  and let us know what you would like to help us out with.
