Is your favorite place to shop a hardware store? If yes (or no), we need you, The Habitat for Humanity ReStore is looking for people to volunteer with all aspects running our ReStore.

What is it? - - The South Puget Sound Habitat for Humanity ReStore is a new and used building supply and home furnishing store located in Downtown Olympia. All items are donated by individuals and businesses and then sold to the public to raise funds so we can keep building homes. Last year the ReStore diverted over 150 tons of usable items from the landfill. The store run mostly on volunteers and more are always needed.

ReStore Board - - Help bring in donations of materials and decide the direction of the store. Background in hardware is a plus but not needed. Just have some time each month for a meeting and a few phone calls, if you have more time to invest that is up to you.

Store Associate - - If you are looking for something hands on and you have got a few hours a week to spare then this is the perfect place to volunteer. Duties would include helping customers, organizing and pricing items. At least 5 hours a week is requested, more if you want.

Pick-Up Driver - - Do your friends call you when they are moving? Then we are calling you too. Pick- up drivers are always needed to bring in donations of materials to the ReStore. Our vans and our gas, you just drive. A few hours a week is all you need to give. Have a good driving record.

More Info - - Alex at 360-956-3456 or sign up online at www.spshabitat.org or just stop by 210 Thusrtson Ave NE in Downtown Oly.
